Idk why I never heard of this one before but it got an update recently so it appeared in my Droid-ify feed and now I'm sharing it. Hopefully someone finds it useful.

you probably heard of "simple dialer". Fossify apps are forks of simple (because simple is sold to an advertisement company)

long story short 👆

Damn, I didn't know! When did that happen? By the way, I've just noticed that the Simple apps haven't been updated for about a year.

Fdroid version is old because their newer versions are not open source anymore. So don't use them

Oh, so theycve abandoned the open source version :( I'm switching all my simple apps to Fossify.

export from simple, import to fossify

at least the switch is easy :)
