Fossify
github.com
A group of simple, open source apps without ads and unnecessary permissions, with customizable colors. A fork of @SimpleMobileTools. - Fossify

We all saw in the news that Simple Mobile Tools got acquired by ZipoApps and they started filling up the free apps with ads.

Luckily, being those apps open source, a new fork has been created.

It’s called Fossify. They forked all the apps on GitHub and they have a new maintainer.

Now we just need to wait for their first official release and then… we need to spread the word and make people switch from the old SMT apps to Fossify!

      Well for me personally it’s because the name is not descriptive of what it does, but just what kind of software it is, license wise.

      Basically, like if someone named a brand new car ‘Costsmonae’.
