I like his Retro Music Player app as well! Both of these are very well designed and beautiful looking apps, so much so I can't believe they're free and open source.
We need more FOSS apps, no tracking, no shady data collection, no unexpected IAPs... just make sure to donate to the projects you find useful!

Your videos are so clean and informative, its obvious they take a ton of effort to make. You are certainly my favourite RUclipsr. Thanks and keep up the great work!
Just found your channel. First off It's awesome to see RUclips creators covering FOSS apps like this! Also DAMN the camera work in this video is sublime. Its wonderful watching all these clean and well done shots!
Sam you are a wizard , everytime im in need of a specific app and boom you upload a video showcasing exactly what i need , i got Seal, Paisa and now with data monitor. you are absolutely amazing.
Heey, don't know if this will ever get to you, but I'm really enjoying your content. It's amazing to see someone who's enthusiastic and a technophile for both IOS and android + creating apps/and homescreen setups for all of us. Big fan of you man and always wish you the best of luck.
Worth considering that if users of open source apps paid for them they would have more and better open source apps. They are free as in free to see the source code and free for anyone skilled to customize, but they costs to develop and keep up to date in an ever evolving tech landscape.
As far as Nearby Sharing considered there are Warp/Wormhole apps that allow you to share files and folders between Windows, Linux and Android devices in both directions.
I'm keeping my GrapheneOS phone lean and mean and mostly use the provided apps. I added a few that I need to check in on my 91 year old Mom who has dementia, GPS track my motorcycle if it's stolen, etc. These only get privileges when running and GrapheneOS doesn't auto start them at reboot. One open source app I use is OSMand - the Open Street Maps offline GPS navigator.
Hi there, with the rise auf RFID/NFC Chips and Cards it would be nice to get an overview which possibilties are the to manage these cards/chips in one place - your smartphone. Maybe a good video idea
Vivo used to have the feature of "Raise to Answer" back in the Android 5 days. idk if its still there in the newer ROMs but i do miss it cuz i used it a lot
I downloaded that Vi Music app on a whim. It's fucking awesome! Thanks so much! I love your free, open source, and not-in-the-app-store apps videos! Absolutely fabulous!
your video production quality has really reached another level for everything tech and sorts..maybe others will soon follow your style.. and they should.. Cheers!!!
Instead of nearby sharing you should have added kde connect on your list. It is the best thing to do every possible thing you might want between pc and phone.
I use nearby share very much from when you showed it. Thank you. If they can to update the app so can send with the same way from windows to android it will be great.
i would say KDE connect is best to send and receive files between two android phones i don't know if there one for iPhone but is possible to use it in Linux you can send and receive files between your phone and your pc or laptop that has Linux inside it easy and fast it's an open source applications
You could different brightness as back as S6 from marshmallow on Samsung. Google is always slow to copy samsung. Raise to answer and even raise to call the contact you're seeing is on Samsung phones as back as S3
Sadly I just realized that using Vimusic, RUclips Music (opened as web in firefox private mode with zero login+history) somehow able to get my playing history (probably user data too). Had never used RUclips music and carefully never login to any Google ac with my firefox browser (& enabled always private mode). Still somehow RUclips Music managed to get my data even in a private mode of another app... 😅 I was really excited to Vimusic and really trying to move to it 😢
just a note. open source doesn't mean ALL the code is available. they can still include other proprietary binaries. a good example is the linux kernel. the word you are looking for is libre or free.
@@Xiefux that's wrong. MOST of the drivers are optional. A lot of proprietary drivers still gets passed into the source. You can read the Linux-Libre kernel release notes and see what they've fixed.
Damn Sam you passed 300k which is imprressive af cuz most will never go pass 100k-300k this means That you are by far Leveling up now i believe That You should be Leveling up in what you do meaning I with so so many many many many ppl who has a tv will Like it if you also did tv relevant apps Making your channel so much more interesting and far much better than is currently I had not seen a tv relevant app vid orva tv relevant video cuz android tv is android making it Logical to not Leave it out ever
There is google's beta nearby sharing app in windows that can pair to your android 12/13 easily. I use it daily to send files back and forth across my devices.
I have a problem with SEAL when i want to change download direction to my SD CARD it says "thit direction is not supported" so can anyone please help me
Nearby sharing seems redundant seeing that kde connect has a modern ui and bidirectional file sharing, command execution (commands picked by host so the device connect wont execute any command), presentation mode, media center mode, and notification sync
I tried to use Artisans on Graphene OS, but I don't have a launcher, and I'm not sure if/ which on to install. Anyone have experience with this combo? thx
The Creator of Paisa App is a classmate of mine. Nice to see his work being featured. :)

Is he Indian?
@@funnymemes6898 Yea ofc, see the name of the app bruh!
@@rex4416 that's why I asked I m Indian too. Love to see more Indian apps ❤️

Sam really need to pin this comment.
Joey for reddit is better
epic
For RUclips I'd suggest libretube(foss), it's just perfection with just a better ui which is fast and reliable
kindly explain infinity since I use boost & alot

Your channel is a necessity for Android users around the world 😍 even here in India
Man i love your pfp
Is India outside planet Earth?
@@kumarsajal8400 I think he means especially?
As one of the free and open source apps, I can confirm I am the best, and Sam is right.
You're an app? 🤔
xD
Wtf u tryna say man 😭😂
@@HithaishiDesai LoL 😂

Love the ultrawide aspect ratio 😁
Yeah looks great
Paisa sounds like exactly what I need. Definitely gonna give it a try!
Are you able to get the cool card colour effect going? Mine doesn't seem to want to
U know what the word paisa means?
Give a try to Ivy wallet too
Is it good? I want to try it too
it's really good! i've been using it for a month or so now
Raise to answer or face down to hang up was a feature in my Samsung s3 mini all the way back in 2012. Its genuinely useful.
As far as Nearby Sharing considered there are Warp/Wormhole apps that allow you to share files and folders between Windows, Linux and Android devices in both directions.
My favorites:
Aegis
Blackhole
Atharok's Barcode Scanner
Opensource apps offer the source code you often don't understand as a common user, but it makes you feel safe because it says an opensource. :D
thanks sam! another banger! i just hope iOS starts supporting sideloading. that's literally the only thing that's still keeping me hooked to android.
I have 2 sims i.e 2 data packs, will data monitor show both of them?

This is fabulous - I never knew about ViMusic - the perfect complement to Newpipe!
Vimusic's updated version is launched now, named Rimusic now 👍🏻
Now nearby share is working flawlessly. Its awesome.

"Paisa" means Money in Urdu and Hindi
I found your old video like a week ago, and I was looking to find another one! Great video, I found it extremely helpful!
Thank you. Very clean visuals and the B-roll scenes were delightful.

Very good video, great editing and job well done, my compliments.
Great video, many thanks. By the way, on the repository page of SEAL, a lot of users are reporting issue, bringing it to not properly work.
Hasn't worked for me in the last few weeks.
@@se7enBC1 fot me too. I really Hope they'll fix it.
@@se7enBC1 ya me too
The latest update fixed that problem
V 1.8.3

Ikr and zorin connect if you use zorin as your daily driver
Thanks for this , i requested this topic on your last video. Glad you made it

+1 for this suggestion.
There is an iOS app as well as Windows app.
Great video mate. Found 2/3 really helpful apps👌
Hitting Like button even before watching! Love the video.
Can you do a video talking about best rom that make your phone feel like android 13. And how to install and setup
Official nearby share for windows has been release by Google. Works both ways without even logging in.
Thanks you so much for covering these apps
They are so useful
Don't phones have an inbuilt data monitor?
Sam, you just gained a subscriber. Thanks!
Link to wallpaper at 1:11?
Thanks for the great video & the amazing apps. I love how the apps look great too (love some great design)

I just want to know how you got the back tap flashlight on a Samsung. I can't find it in registar
You could different brightness as back as S6 from marshmallow on Samsung. Google is always slow to copy samsung.

vi music is a bloody game changer
i love the aspect ratio perfectly fit my phone
How can i turn on flash light by double back click in samsung device, can't see any option in registar
Define really the open source... As its misunderstood ☺️
Another youtube music client I can recommend is *Innertune*
Really good UI and it even adds downloads
What's the phone on which the Arcticons part has been shot/filmed?
Love your videos.. really helpfull
Thanks for this 🙏🏿
There is google's beta nearby sharing app in windows that can pair to your android 12/13 easily. I use it daily to send files back and forth across my devices.
Day-ta or Daa ta... We love these apps
I don't know what's worse, filming vertical or filming ultra-wide.
what phone do you use for the videos
I have a problem with SEAL when i want to change download direction to my SD CARD it says "thit direction is not supported" so can anyone please help me
Has anyone gotten the cool card effect to work on Paisa?
Seal is one I keep. Luv it ✊
Is there any app that can turn Samsung's double tap to wake to just single tap to wake? I can turn off Always On Display if that's what it takes too
Nearby sharing seems redundant seeing that kde connect has a modern ui and bidirectional file sharing, command execution (commands picked by host so the device connect wont execute any command), presentation mode, media center mode, and notification sync
How do I backup Paisa?
It says "disabled" whenever I tap the button
Is there any app that allows you copy from Android and paste to windows 11 stress free
Could you please suggest me the the offline music player with best audio codec??
What is the squared with rounded corners phone you are using?
It would have been a bit more better if the comparison was done with an OLED monitor as well
Can I use Foss apps with no issues if I’m NOT rooted??
Seal is GOATED
Bro, can you make a vdo to setup the ambient music mod....?
are these apps are safe to use ?
I tried to use Artisans on Graphene OS, but I don't have a launcher, and I'm not sure if/ which on to install.
Anyone have experience with this combo?
thx
Seal is not working from last 15 days🙄🙄
