| App List |
This is most of the apps I use on my smartphone.
- 1Password: I'll have to rely on the browser version
- A Better Route Planner: The new phone has some version of Google Maps, and longer trips can be planned on the computer beforehand
- Amtrak: this one could be tough. Having the Amtrak app is very helpful on train voyages when problems happen.
- Andronome: A metronome app. I bet I can make a web app on woozle.org to do this.
- AntennaPod: Podcasts. I think there's a podcast app for KaiOS.
- Authenticator: There's a TOTP app for KaiOS. I may need to update it.
- Awful: I'll use the web version.
- Book Reader: I wasn't reading books on the phone. What's funny is that I read Moby Dick on my Nokia 5310. But the smartphone is too distracting to read.
- Calculator: KaiOS has a calculator.
- ChargePoint: EV charger app. I may have to either pay more and use my credit card, or get their plastic card for in-network rates.
- ConnectBot: ssh client. There's one on my laptop.
- Contacts: There's one built into KaiOS.
- Electrify America: same story as ChargePoint.
- EVGo: same story.
- Firefox: KaiOS has a browser. I bet it's awful. But I don't think I'll use it much.
- Fitbit: Gonna have to give this one up.
- Gmail: I'm already off gmail.
- Google Calendar: This may be the thing that pulls me back. Getting push reminders of upcoming events has been a big deal.
- Google Home: I think I actually need to keep the phone just for this app.
- Google Messages: It'll be SMS only for me.
- Google News: good riddance.
- Google Photos: web version.
- Google Podcasts: they're killing this anyway.
- Google Pay: credit cards have tap to pay.
- Listen Audiobook Player: I'll have to see if I can find a KaiOS app for this.
- Mattermost: No more work push notifications for me, so sad.
- Open Camera: The camera is not as big a part of my life now as it once was. I can get snapshots with the dumbphone. Not good ones, but good enough. I grew up with crummy 110 cameras. It'll be okay.
- Plex: maybe I can copy video files over, for the train trips. Will I want to watch movies on a 2-inch screen, though? Good thing I have a laptop!
- PlexAmp: I will have to copy music files over to my phone, like I did 20 years ago. It'll be okay.
- Proton Mail: laptop ahoy!
- Signal: Ironically, Signal is the one app that absolutely cannot run without a smartphone. And it's where most of my friends are.
- gStrings: (instrument tuner) I may have to buy a guitar tuner!
- YouTube: comes with the phone, although, again, 2-inch screen.
- YouTube Music: same story as PlexAmp. Music files on phone.
- Work Apps: I'll just use my work laptop for work. It'll be fine, the main inconvenience will be when I forget to do my timecard, I'll have to grab the laptop.
- Banking Apps: they all have web sites I can use, although one of my credit cards leans fairly heavily into the app.
