I'm not exactly sure who is behind all the Fossify apps but I'm impressed with their momentum.

A former contributor to the project

Incase you don't know they're all forks of existing projects from another org that sold off to some weird tech company. That company filled the apps with ads while stopping development so a contributer to the original project started fosify. Gotta love free and open source software if it wasn't for it all these apps would be abandonware and adware forever

Solid release. Simple and usable. Will keep it to see how it progresses. Nice work!

This was the last one I was waiting for!

I want the Launcher to be full-featured. Waiting patiently. For me, it's missing Work Profile and an app drawer button.

Is this a fork of Simple Draw? Judging by the screenshots, I think it is. I wonder why they had decided to rename it completely, unlike their other forks.

SimpleMobileTools is a dead project that was sold to an ad tech company. It has been forked and fully replaced by the Fossify Suite of apps. All simple tools apps should be gone from fdroid now i think.

Right, but Simple Gallery became Fossify Gallery, Simple Calendar became Fossify Calendar, etc. I am wondering why Simple Draw became Fossify Paint

Very nice and functional. Really good for a first release. Would love to see further investment into it, such as different brushes and things like that.
