Update: 18 November 2022 List of open source Android applications for “de-google, de-samsung, de-microsoft, de-nsa, de-china-malware etc. etc.” your mobile phone, as always, the list is written in a KISS simple way. The apps in the list are divided by category but within the categories they have no order. Feel free to contact me to add applications or modify the list. The links in the list are related to the application website (if exists) or to the source code repository, I suggest to install Droid-ify or Neo Store which already has the repositories of Guardian Project, IzzyOnDroid and other applications such as Bromite and NewPipe, and search apps from there. The list does not include FOSS (FLOSS) apps that are present only on Google Play Store, regarding Signal you can download it directly from the website here: https://signal.org/android/apk/ Also the apps not included are those that have not been updated for a long time (about 1 year) with some exceptions, useless apps (like Wi-Fi On/OFF, or show my IP address (?)) …and apps that I don’t like :) Table of Contents Android-based Operating Systems App Stores App Repositories 2FA Alternative Network Browser Calendar Camera Clock Cloud Contacts Documents Reader Email Client Email Anonymous Forwarding Exif/Metadata Cleaner File Manager File Sharing Gallery Instant Messagging Launcher Keyboard Maps Media Player YouTube Alternative Client Network Security Notes Password Manager Reddit Client RSS Reader Social Network System Security VPN Client Donations Android-based Operating Systems Calyx OS DivestOS LineageOS GrapheneOS Replicant Plasma Mobile postmarketOS PureOS /e/OS Sailfish OS Ubuntu Touch App Stores Droid-ify - Recommended F-Droid alternative Neo Store - Droid-ify Fork F-Droid - Some security issues, see: F-Droid Issues Fossdroid Aurora Store - Alternative Google Playstore Client App Repositories IzzyOnDroid Guardian Project DivestOS SimpleMobileTools SECUSO 2FA Aegis FreeOTP Plus Authenticator Pro Etopa Alternative Network Orbot I2P Freenet Mobile Browser Bromite Mull Mulch Tor Browser Privacy Browser Fennec F-Droid FOSS Browser monocles browser Calendar Simple Calendar Etar Calendar DAVx5 Note Calendar Camera OpenCamera GrapheneOS Camera FreeDcam Clock Simple Clock Simple alarm clock Clock Cloud Nextcloud syncthing-android Contacts SimpleContacts OpenContacs Koler Documents Reader MuPDF Book Reader CoolReader 3 OpenDocument GrapheneOS PdfViewer Email Client K-9 Mail FairEmail ProtonMail - Can redirect traffic to Google and Quad9 DNS, see: Why does the PM Bridge use Google and Quad9 DNS?
