Any suggestions for paid one time purchase apps on the Google play store?
Tasks.org is a wonderful open-source todo/task app, that has a low-cost monthly subscription to use it’s syncing ability. It’s worth it to support FOSS wherever we can.
Subscriptions, no matter how low, are the antithesis of a buy once app.
Why are you even commenting with this
Because it’s supporting FOSS, and it’s one of the few foss apps on the play store iirc that let you pay for it.
you shouldn’t support proprietary software
Nova launcher prime
Also bought Nova Launcher Prime, but they were apparently acquired in the last year so now Nova is spyware? Anyway, I switched over to Kvaesitso and couldn’t be happier.
Nova was amazing but they’ve been bought out. I tried Niagra Launcher and after being frustrated with a new UI, I absolutely love it.
Interesting, i’ll have a look on it Edit: gave it a try, but you have to remember the exact name of every app, and i dont care enough to remember if the name is ‘store’ or ‘market’ or ‘app store’ for example
Yeah, I’m with you on that. I tend to install a ton of interesting apps when I see them, and categorize them into groups (many apps fit multiple groups) so when I’m looking to do something in particular the apps that might fill the need are together to try it with. If those search launchers allowed for adding multiple tags to each app for categorizing and searching, then they’d probably work well enough for me to try.
CamScanner (intuitive and powerful scanner app that processes images exceptionally well and interfaces cleanly with all sorts of other apps) and Hiper Calc Pro (scientific calculator that shows you your input and looks like a classic calculator interface)
There’s an open source pdf scanner that works exceptionally well
That’s great! It’s not super helpful for me, though, since I teach students that often aren’t good at troubleshooting technology issues on their own so I need an app that’s pretty universal and user-friendly. Plus, the question specifically asked about stuff in the Android play store…
The github has download links for fdroid, apk, obtainium, and play store. Here’s the play store link if you want it

Minimalist phone Launcher that helps to use addictive apps less. And overall a boring home that demotivates you to use your phone.
