Auto-auto-rotate. Remember your rotation setting by app. Why that isn’t built in I don’t know.

Because 99% of people don’t want to hassle with changing rotation settings per app?

Having a default and per app setting is actually super useful and isn’t a hassle

I always want my gallery app to rotate. I never want my email app to rotate. Auto-auto-rotate remembers the last rotation setting for every app I use and will turn it on or off for me. After a day of normal use I literally haven’t had to touch the system rotate setting once. It’s fully automatic and took zero effort. Having to change the setting manually is more of a hassle than this.

Sleep for Android, great alarm app with many functions.

I have mine set to vibrate my watch for 5 min, if I don’t wake my phone will slowly ram up the ring volume. I get two snoozes and then it won’t snooze again until I scan a QR code in the bathroom.

Best alarm app ever. It can do a ton.

Google rewards, gives you short surveys for money you can use on the play store. I bought sleep for Android pro a long time ago with the rewards. I have made about 100 dollars. Surveys are easy and fast.

OmWeather from f-droid is ok. Also I just installed Fossify Gallery (photo viewer) and like it so far. I don’t know what counts as a QoL app though. Does something like Jami count? It’s a more private alternative to Skype and phone calls. I haven’t yet tried to use it though.

NoPhoneSpam from FDroid is pretty good at blocking overseas spam calls.
