Fossify Contacts (fork of Simple Contacts) and Fossify SMS Messenger (fork of Simple SMS Messenger) have been released on F-Droid.
Other Fossify apps available for download on F-Droid:
Fossify Gallery (fork of Simple Gallery)
Fossify File Manager (fork of Simple File Manager)
Fossify Phone (fork of Simple Dialer)
Fossify Calendar (fork of Simple Calendar)
(ICYMI, Simple Mobile Tools suite was acquired by an adware company and their apps on the Google Play Store now contain trackers and unnecessary permissions. This report from Exodus shows that the old version of Simple Gallery had 0 trackers and 10 permissions, whereas the app, after sale, contains 9 trackers and 21 permissions!)
About Fossify: Fossify is all about community-backed, open-source, and ad-free mobile apps. A fork of the SimpleMobileTools, which is no longer maintained, and we’re here to continue the legacy, bringing simple and private tech to everyone.
Its still on fdroid. I am using all of them from fdroid so I believe there’s no trackers.
It is unlikely the new owners will add trackers to the f-droid versions, if only because they won’t be updating the apps on f-droid ever again. So while you would be safe from trackers, there’s not really any downside in switching to the Fossify versions to be able to receive any future updates and security fixes.
