I have 115
Only a couple, what are the benefits of having them through Obtanium over fdroid other than faster updates?
None. And F-Droid provides guarantees of trustworthiness that go above what getting it directly from the source can do.
I also use Breezy Weather, it is really aesthetically pleasing.
I used to use it, but now use Weather Master that’s available through izzyonddroid. It’s even more aesthetically pleasing imo and also let’s you choose from more sources.
Nice… But it doesn’t allow data sharing (to Gadgetbridge, for example). So it’s a no go for me, thanks!
Whoa, thanks for this! I’ve been looking for something that isn’t pixel weather, but matches that aesthetic because I’m partial to it.
Breezy weather also allows you to select weather data from multiple sources. It even let’s you select which type of data to get from which provider.
I also use breezy, but i choose fdroid builds whenever possible. I appreciate the extra code monitoring/verification.
I use it because it doesn’t need location services i can set it manually. But still it’s good
I download almost everything from F-Droid (I also use Droid-ify). I just use Obtainium for the 3 open source apps that aren’t on F-Droid.
- Iceraven
- Nagram
- Obtainium itself
- RetroArch
- Squawker
- TachiyomiJ2K
- Voyager
- YouTube ReVanced
- YouTube ReVanced Music
- microG (for the last two)
Can you recommend me some good ones?
I have 15 atm. Using mostly f-droid and Izzy for all the other apps that i cant find on obtainium.
Breezy Weather, GrapheneOS Camera, Cirrus, Notesnook, Transportr, Amaze File Manager, Ungoogled Chromium, Material Files, NewPipe, PDF Viewer GrapheneOS, Podverse, pr0gramm, RedReader, MEGA Android Client, Notally.I see some apps there that are also in F-Droid
Is there a big benefit to Obtanium for apps that are also released there? My understanding is that Obtanium doesn’t do any key verification of APKs, so I’ve only used it as a last resort
on Fdroid updates are slow ( you’ll get update after 2-3 days) Obtainium works with app verifier.
Why you need so fast updates? What is bad to have update after 3 days?
Just in case a state threat actor is going to take advantage of that zero day exploit the update is patching bro…
Duhhh
OSS document ftw.
Only one: SeriesGuide
I just use Droidify. I guess I don’t need cutting-edge stuff on my phone.
11 including Obtainium
- I only use 15, though.
I have 20, but anytime an fdroid app updates I move it to obtainium. I don’t have time to review all in one go. But I’m sure the number will get to around 50 eventually when I’m done moving all f-Droid items to obtainium
I would rather compile the apps myself or trust fdroid than trust 50+ developers to have safe builds.
How many of them are “manual”? I mean, ones you had to configure goes to scrape from whatever website they are hosted on, etc.
I only have eight apps, and even then only one “manual”. It’s the most important one though… 🦜
All of them are manually added. It took me around 6 months
A list? Or the ones you would suggest to people
What list man
List of apps on Obtanium
The list.
15
