Hey, Android enthusiasts! 📱

Let’s take a tour of your favourite non-game paid apps in 2023 that are worth every penny!

No APKs please. Play Store links and app screenshots are encouraged. FOSS projects worth a contribution or two (whether a donation or paid version) are also more than welcome!

Let’s skip the games (that’s a story for another day) and spotlight some ever-reliable paid apps recommended by @Deconceptualist@lemm.ee:

  • Tasker: The master of automation, turning your device into an efficiency wizard.
  • Titanium Backup: Safeguarding your data with finesse.
  • SD Maid: Your neat freak companion, maintaining cleanliness and speed.
  • BigBag: Organizing your shopping escapades like a champ.
  • Wolfram Alpha: The answer guru for all things complex.

Here’s to building a treasure trove of invaluable apps and supporting those who keep the Android landscape innovative and vibrant!

This week’s discussion idea is brought to you by @Deconceptualist@lemm.ee. Include your suggestions for a future !android@lemdro.id post in your response below!

    Weather Today has a lifetime premium deal for only $27 CAD. It’s a no brainer if you want the best Material You weather app. It pays itself off in a little less than 3 years.

    • Hermit : Create lite web apps.
    • Repainter: Dynamic theming for Android 12+.
    • Wavelet: Custom headphone/earbud equalizer with AutoEQ database.
    • JuiceSSH: Great SSH interface.
    • Obtainium: Keep apps from GitHub updated.

    • Groundwire: VoIP SIP softphone with push notifications.
    • SunSurveyor: Really great sun tracking for photography.
    • PhotoPills: Decent sun tracking but lots of other photography reference tools.
    • My Lightning Tracker & Alerts: Don’t really need this but somehow enjoy tracking lightning during storms. The alerts can be useful for an early heads up.
