I’m back! This is a continuation of my series on platform-specific hidden gem apps that you have discovered that are the best in their class for your usecase.

We’ve done iOS+MacOS so far so lets get universal and share our Android hidden gems.

For mine, I would say NewPipe for YouTube… Lets do it!

Edit: Please try to avoid apps that cannot be purchased (subscription apps) since it is important that the creator cannot cut you off once you’ve taken time/effort/money to integrate it into your workflow and dependance. No Apollos, which have that fatal flaw + relying on an external API that they additionally cannot gurantee

    I got frustrated by the difficulty curve. It’s easy for a few levels, and then suddenly impossible. There are enough easy levels at the beginning that it quickly becomes tedious to grind through back to something interesting.

    That said, I’m not a huge fan of the monotonous nature of rogue-like games, and Shattered Pixel is well-done and good-looking. I just wish the level difficulty scaling were more linear.
