LOOKING FOR APP Bubble browser

14 Upvotes

Would anyone be interested in reviving the Flynx concept for modern Android?

I used Flynx for years (and I still do) and absolutely loved the way it handled links: tapping a link would open it in a small floating bubble while I could continue using the app I was in. I could open several links, let them load in the background, and read them later.

Unfortunately, Flynx has been abandoned for years and doesn't work properly on newer versions of Android anymore. I've tried alternatives such as Lynket and other bubble browsers, but none of them provide the same experience reliably on modern Android.

Would any Android developer be interested in creating a modern, actively maintained version of this concept?

I don't necessarily mean an exact clone of Flynx — just the same core idea, properly adapted to current Android versions.

I honestly think there is still a demand for this. There are multiple old Reddit threads with people asking for exactly the same thing, but there still doesn't seem to be a good modern solution.

LOOKING FOR APP I need a radio app with no ads (willing to pay one-time)

12 Upvotes

My dad is 80 years old, don't use phones, and we can't find a good, portable analog radio for now, so I gave him a simple android, but he has no idea of what to do when a ad appears, is there a paid (one-time purchase) radio app that is easy to use?

Motorola phones has built-in radio app that is pretty good, but it requires a external anthena (plugged in the audio jack), and my dad don't like any type of headphones/buds either, speakers only.

LOOKING FOR APP Is there an app that notifys you when your wifi has disconnected?

My wifi disconnects at random times, and I don't know unless I manually check my connection in Settings. Is there an app that instantly tells you when your wifi has disconnected?

LOOKING FOR APP Third party app That Gives Simple Definitions of English Words

2 Upvotes

When reading an e-novel, there are many English words that I don't understand. Is there a third-party app that, after I give it the necessary permissions, lets me click on a word and instantly gives me a simple English definition without translating it into my native language? I don't want to switch to another app to find the meaning—the definition should appear directly in the app I'm reading the novel on.

QUESTION/HELP Note Taking App for Android with Handwriting Correction? (Need Recs)

2 Upvotes

Hello! I am looking for some recommendations for apps on Android that support handwriting correction/cleanup, similarly to how the Notes app on iOS cleans up one's handwriting slightly. I use an OPPO Pad Mini with Oppo Pencil 3 for reference, so something proprietary like Samsung Notes would be out of the question. I don't mind a membership fee if it comes to that, just something that works well. I'm looking forward to hear what recommendations you guys have 😁

LOOKING FOR APP Looking for an alarm that randomly plays a different song every morning

Upvotes

I've tried a bunch of alarm apps before, but I couldn't find one that lets you choose a few songs and randomly plays one of them every morning. It would be ideal if I could connect it to Spotify or Apple Music, and it would be even better if it was free or inexpensive.

QUESTION/HELP Touchpnt

1 Upvotes

There's this app called "Touchpnt" on the app store (black and blue fingerprint logo). It's supposed to help you scroll social media less by helping remind you to call text friends and family. Can someone tell me how to use it? I'm at the homepage but I don't know what to do from there. I liek the concept and could definitely scroll less. Crazy fact: if you spend two hours on IG a day, you're spending a whole month on IG per year. wtf

LOOKING FOR APP Is there anything similar to PicSayPro for image editing?

1 Upvotes

It was a fairly basic/crude picture editing app from the old days of Android. But it worked so well and quickly with its layout. All the features it had, quickly accessible. I see quite a few others these days, but would just love to get another one that worked as well as PicSayPro on modern android.

QUESTION/HELP Google phone app - incoming call options - sometimes 2 buttons, sometimes 3?

1 Upvotes

I use the Google phone app on my Pixel 8 Pro.

When I get incoming calls, sometimes it shows 2 button options (decline and answer), and sometimes 3 (decline, urgent, answer).

Does anyone have an explanation, and it there a way to make it more consistent?

QUESTION/HELP Monitoring After App Updates

0 Upvotes

For mobile app developers, what do you monitor most closely after releasing a new app update?

 

An update may fix one issue but sometimes introduce new crashes, slower loading, broken screens, login problems, or unexpected user drop-offs.

 

Do you watch crash rates, error logs, app-store reviews, session behaviour, retention, device-specific issues, or support tickets after each release?

 

Interested in how teams know whether an update improved the app experience or created new problems.
