I'm sure there are countless apps out there that are incredibly cool, interesting, or useful, but just haven't hit the mainstream yet. Maybe it's a productivity tool that's boosted your efficiency, a unique game that's kept you entertained for hours, or a niche app that's catered perfectly to one of your hobbies or interests.

What are some Android hidden gem apps that you've used a bunch or think it's really cool/interesting/useful?

Please share your recommendations, and if possible, a brief description of what the app does and why you find it so valuable.

Looking forward to uncovering some hidden treasures in the Android app world. Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

X-plore file manager. I've been using it since UIQ days.

If you are not streaming music, but play your local library - PowerAmp.

Shuttle > all of them fight me

[-] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I'm in a fighting mood. I wanna beat up both of you.

Winamp. Everybody line up so I can just run down the row while holding my fist at face hight.

Pulsar music player

Gonemad Classic is unbeatable imho, and I tried them all.

[-] MiikCheque@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

blackplayer used to be my favorite but it's not as actively developed as it once was.

[-] Mango@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It's already all the way developed!

[-] viking@infosec.pub 4 points 1 year ago

X-Plore is amazing. Especially the FTP server is so useful, there simply is no easier way of moving files between devices.

And they provide a native SmartTV app you can control with the remote, it's excellent.

I've been using Ghost Commander, but I might give that a whirl

I feel like poweramp has a mind of its own on whether or not it wants to actually shuffle your music. Whenever I put my music on shuffle, it'll shuffle the songs, but then it'll just play an entire album in order.

There are separate options for shuffling songs and categories (albums, artists, folders, genre, etc) and you can toggle them independently of each other.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
