title: 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.
