Mnuum keyboard
I have been using the minuum keyboard app, problem free forover a decade. I know they no longer exist and so there is no suuport anymore. However, for aone dn reason, the app keeps telling me my trial is over and requires an upgrade.
I've paid for the full version a long time ago and never had a problem with the app until now! Now, it keeps closing itself or just straight up refuse to open without being laggy. Is there anyway to get it to stop doing this? And why after a decade of problem free usage is it choosing now to start acting up?

Is there a proper local/offline Android alternative to Wispr Flow?
I recently tried Wispr Flow on Android and really liked the experience, but I found out most of it is cloud-based. Now I’m looking for something similar that runs fully locally on-device, preferably open source, with a good UI and proper Android integration instead of feeling like a rough developer project. I already know about FUTO Voice Input and some Whisper-based apps, but I’m curious if there’s something more polished that also does decent punctuation and grammar cleanup while working smoothly across apps.

Planning an E2EE Mac ↔ Android clipboard sync app. Need your feedback on V1 features!
Hey everyone,
I’ve been planning to build a dedicated, lightweight clipboard sharing app specifically optimized for Mac and Android. Before I dive into coding, I want to make sure I’m building something people actually want to use, rather than guessing what matters most.
Note on Security: To get this out of the way first—the app will feature full End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) by default. No data will ever hit a network or server in plain text, so sensitive data like passwords or 2FA codes stay completely private to your devices.
With security handled, I’d love to get your thoughts on a few key functional choices for V1.
1. Cloud vs. Local-Only Sync
Option A (Local Only): Direct peer-to-peer sync (via Wi-Fi/Bluetooth). Zero data leaves your local network, but your phone and Mac must be near each other.
Option B (Cloud Assisted): Synced via an encrypted relay server so it works seamlessly even if your phone is on cellular data across town.
Question: Do you need remote sync (Option B) enough to justify traffic going through a server, or do you prefer the strict isolation of a local-only setup?
2. Sync Direction & Content
Is bidirectional (Mac ↔ Android) a must-have for day one, or is one specific direction your primary pain point?
Is plain text sufficient for a V1 launch, or do you frequently need to sync images, rich text, or files right off the bat?
3. The Android Background Restriction
Ever since Android stopped apps from freely reading the clipboard in the background, developers have to use different workarounds. Which trade-off would you prefer?
Automated: Enabling an Android Accessibility Service so the app can capture your copies silently in the background. This is risky though (app rejections, possible battery drain).
Manual / Semi-Automated: Using the native Android "Share" sheet or a Quick Settings tile / persistent notification to manually push text to your Mac.
If you currently use workarounds like KDE Connect or messaging yourself to move text between your Mac and Android, what is your biggest pet peeve with them?
Looking forward to your feedback!

Need help transferring very old app to another phone
I have this app on my android phone called Readtracker. I think I downloaded it 4 to 5 years ago and I usually do not keep auto update so it never got updated and now, when I search on play store, the app doesn’t exist. It may have changed, but I can’t figure it out. It’s not even in my play store apps. But I love this app. It is minimalist and everything I need. But if I lose my phone, then I will also lose this app. So before that happens, I want to transfer it to other phone. I do have an iPhone, but if it cannot be transferred to iOS then I also have my sister’s android phone, I can transfer it onto.
So is there any way I can transfer/duplicate this same version of this app to other phone(iOS/android)?

Best Budgeting App for Android?
Hi everyone. What are some budget/finance apps for Android? I've been a huge fan of Cashew and have been using it for a just under a month, but I feel like there might be a more complete and better option out there that I might like more. The core features I'm interested in that currently exist in Cashew are:
Offline-first and secure
Detailed analytics
Loans tracking
Goals tracking
Subscriptions/recurring transactions tracking
Budgets tracking
Support for main and subcategories
Manual data import/export
Colorful and fun UI experience (similar to Cashew)
Are there other mobile apps that offer this and more? Perhaps some that offer something different but are more complete than Cashew?

Microsoft authenticator cloud backup fails with something went wrong on Oneplus 12
I am trying to setup microsoft authenticator app for MFA and storing TOTP in OnePlus 12 androidd phone. The app works without any issue but cloud backup doesn't work. Whenever I try to press cloud backup (to setup backup) it fails with "something went wrong. Please send us logs ..".
I have tried multiple options to fix but none of them seem to resolve the issue. 1) uninstalled and reinstalled the app (deleted the app and cache before uninstalling). 2) using personal gmail email with microsoft account (not college/office account) 3) removed microsoft account from phone and tried adding it back in fresh install of microsoft authenticator 4) tried on wifi and mobile network and no success on either. 5) I have removed microsoft account from phone and tried adding it back, where I am able to login to account in the microsoft app but the cloud backup creation fails with same error
I have android for work profile also configured on the phone, so I have 2 authenticator apps (personal and work profile). I tried setting up backup in the work profile and get the same error "something went wrong..".

Seeking an app to replace Inputting+?
I do a lot of writing on my phone in a few different apps. I also have ADHD and too often let my screen darken without copying what I wrote which can sometimes be 100s of words. Inputting+ saved everything I typed anywhere with key exceptions I could block, and - from what I was able to find - was a reasonably trustworthy app on the data usage front. I could sneak right back in there to copy it and carry on.
Alas, it no longer is working on my phone.
Yes, I could write *everything* in a Google doc so it stays, but that's not the life I wish to lead, my loves!
Anyone have any recommendations for minimally intrusive options to replace this specific function?
Thanks!

Different wallpapers depending on screen orientation
Is there an app that allows separate wallpapers depending on screen orientation?
In other words, either different images entirely, or different crops of the same image.
The app should therefore be able to handle four different images:
\- Lock screen: Portrait mode
\- Lock screen: Landscape mode
\- Home screen: Portrait mode
\- Home screen: Landscape mode
I know the lock screen part is probably rather difficult, but at least for the home screen, it should be doable.

Move folder to a location accessible to the user.
I have a specific question about Scoped Storage on modern Android.
I'm not talking about apps having full access to all folders on the phone like they did in the past.
My question is different:
Starting with Android 11, Google started pushing apps to store their files inside the Android/data folder, which users normally can't access anymore, right?
Today, can a developer still update their app and choose to save the app's own files in a user-accessible location (for example, inside Downloads, Documents, Music, or a custom folder with the app's name) instead of using Android/data?
Or could Android eventually force apps to use only Android/data?
And if Android still allows apps to use user-accessible folders today, does that mean this possibility is likely to always exist?
What I mean is: is this considered a basic part of Android's design, where apps are allowed to choose their own storage location instead of being forced to use only Android/data or another system-defined folder that users cannot access?
Or could Google eventually prevent this completely, at least for Play Store apps?
I'm asking because many Play Store apps — such as camera apps, download managers, audio/video editors, and similar apps — can still save files in normal user-accessible locations.
So does Google only allow these specific types of apps (and will probably always allow them) to choose accessible folders?
Or can any type of app — including games, social media apps, banking apps, note-taking apps, etc. — also choose to store their own files in user-accessible locations, and continue being allowed to do so in the future?
So what I really want to understand is:
Did Android only restrict broad storage access, or is Google actually moving toward a future where apps (like games, social media apps, banking apps, note-taking apps, and similar apps) could be completely prevented from choosing user-accessible folders for their own files?

His Parkinson's affects his dexterity, so it shouldn't be something with a timer. He also has trouble dragging things on the screen sometimes.

All WhatsApp media from an old phone were deleted after updating
I turned on an old phone of mine where I used WhatsApp until 4 years ago (android, now on iPhone).
I updated WhatsApp version (obviously obsolete) and all WhatsApp medias started deleting from my phone archive slowly, I tried to uninstall WhatsApp but nothing happened and it kept deleting files, now only a few have not been deleted because I turned it the phone.
I'm totally lost, because there were a lot of important photos, hope someone can help, I think it may have something to do with WhatsApp reorganizing the archive folders but now photos have been deleted.
Maybe some advanced tool from PC to retrieve deleted files could help?

Delete left overs from uninstalled apps
Hello,
I found a post on this same topic but it is from 7 years ago, so I'm asking if there is better options now.
How to get rid of badly uninstalled software on my android tablet? I installed a lot of record, auto click apps to test what is more convenient for me, and for some reason some of them are really hard to get rid of. Also, after uninstalling "completely" some if them, some behaviour of the tablet is still weird.
Can someone give me advice on how to completely clean my tablet from these apps?
Thank you in advance!
