What Apps Are Missing on Mobile Linux?

cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/28677404

Hey everyone, I'm going insane due to a lack of creative project. I've written an app already but I haven't gotten around to publishing it yet. I'd like to know what kind of apps you'd like to see created for mobile Linux. I prefer easier, bite-sized projects over particularly large ones, but I'd love to hear your ideas nevertheless.

Rather than app, the top feature I'd say is:

  • the ease/accessibility in installing on any modern smartphone disregarding the need to buy a Linux specific & compatible smartphone

Biggest complaint and why I see folks using waydroid is for banking apps.

The most important ones that come to my mind:

  • Maps (like Google Maps, just FOSS) ideally with transportation routing for every country. This could be a lot of work and is definitely not a "small project".

  • Browser (like Firefox). Like 50% of everything I do happens through the browser.

  • File Explorer, PDF viewer, ...

maybe some puzzle games to play when bored. I don't really use much else.

Oh and a Youtube alternative would be nice, but not necessary. You can already visit some through the browser.

The only app keeping me from throwing my Android phone to trash is Kore to share media URLs directly to Kodi on my TV.
