Yes this is partly to show off I got a new phone because I’m so fucking happy to be rid of my water damaged Samsung!

Also to show off my amazing meme skills using a meme generator app. 🤓

Bye seriously… I’ve been living in a cave for years. What apps do you recommend?

I installed, so far:

  • Photo editor pro
  • Mi Remote
  • Meme generator

What else? Recommended ebook reader? Anything else?

      Letting you disable or limit internet access to apps would go pretty strongly against Google’s interests - how would they get their ad money if half the users were running most apps offline?

      Some vendors provide a way to do this (Xiaomi has an internet access toggle per app, or at least it did in the KitKat era), but it’s never making its way into stock Android until Google integrates AdMob into the system.

        You can toggle internet access per app on stock Android tho…

          Only if you consider ROMs like LineageOS to be stock Android and ignore the many things they do to make the user’s life easier.

          AOSP never had internet access as a toggleable permission, and it never will as long as Google is calling the shots and wants ads to work the way they currently do.
