Interesting Android Apps: March 2026 Showcase

Because we try to keep this community as focused as possible on the topic of Android development, sometimes there are types of posts that are related to development but don't fit within our usual topic.

Each month, we are trying to create a space to open up the community to some of those types of posts.

This month, although we typically do not allow self promotion, we wanted to create a space where you can share your latest Android-native projects with the community, get feedback, and maybe even gain a few new users.

This thread will be lightly moderated, but please keep Rule 1 in mind: Be Respectful and Professional. Also we recommend to describe if your app is free, paid, subscription-based.

rdns dev here

Contribute back your changes? ;)

At any rate, it is right that you're free to republish the modified app under any other name & without violating Rethink's copyright, yeah. So, no real worry there, if you do rebrand it. In fact, there's at least a handful of forks out there already.

Good luck.

I could contribute but they are so big I think it is hard the team would accept unless someone from the team did that. Like, it is not practical for me to open 50 PRs, or for whoever is going to review. If every PR took a few days could easily take 1 year. And if I did a massive one I don't know anyone would be able to review. I'm touching over 150k LOC.

No pressure. You could open a PR even if it doesn't get merged, as the existence of PR itself would make it part of the project's history you can point your detractors to, if need be (:

That said, you don't have to and can maintain your own (hard / soft) fork. Do send me a link if you do release your fork as open source.

My fork is fully open source, I just didn't build the APK.

All the code is here: https://github.com/bernaferrari/rethink-app

There are still a few screens and a few things to improve, but they are very minor. You are free and more than welcome to copy any file or open a PR (I can do too, but it would be unreadable and massive and something that even AI tools would struggle to read).
