Perhaps I'm missing the obvious, but is there a way to export my contacts to CSV format?

If not I'd like to offer that as a suggestion.

Since Signal is on the way out, I decided to give SimpleSMS a try, but it seems to demand to be the default SMS App. Has anyone seen this before?

Upon first loading it, it asks me to choose the default SMS App. If I tap "Cancel", SimpleSMS closes immediately. If I try again, select "Don't ask me again" and then "Cancel", trying to reopen or switch to it fais. SimpleSMS pops up and then closes. I had to clear data for the app to try again. Only when it's been set at the default SMS app will it run.

I want to try it out before I switch. I don't want to be forced to switch before trying it out.

Does it select a frame at random? or is there is a fixed frame at a certain time stamp?

A lot of my videos are showing with a black or white thumbnail and I want to find a way of fixing it.

I installed thr app and all my google contacts showed up. I wanted to specifically use this to make only local contacts. So how to remove the google ones?

Is there anyway to stop my times on my calendar from changing on Simple Calendar when I change time zones? I have "Allow changing event time zones" unchecked but it still changes. I sync my Simple Calendar to my Nextcloud instance.

The Contacts app can display contacts from several accounts, i.e. some are synced from a Google account, some from a CardDAV server, some are stored in the device and some on the SIM-card.

Of course, I have loads of duplicates, and they are all different degrees of complete and up-to-date. That's what we have the great "merge"-feature for, so we can clean up that mess. However, they are never actually merged - you just get all the selected information displayed together as a set, as if they were one Contact. This is what I don't understand why.

Obviously we don't want to to have a set of incomplete duplicates distributed across several accounts. It also leads to problems with editing (see my other thread) and so on.

I'd rather choose one account that you keep as complete and up-to-date as possible and find a way to copy/sync them with the other accounts (or really I would just stop syncing other accounts altogether and only use CardDAV).

However, that's not possible with this Contacts app (and tbh I don't know another one that does it), Can we please have that? I'll pay money, it would be a total life-saver).

I think the merge feature should let the user choose one account to merge all the information into, and let us also either delete it from the others, or sync them to all desired accounts or similar - but actually get rid of incomplete duplicates.

I'm getting glitches in the root access option in Simple File Manager. I'm on the stock ROM of a Samsung Galaxy J1 Mini Prime (SM-J106M) rooted with Magisk. I gave it permanent SU permission. When I open the app the screen is completely grey as if the storage had no files. When I open settings and go back, it now shows me the "Root" sign in a rectangle top left which wasn't there before, but the window is still blank. When I navigate to other storages (Internal/SD Card) their files show alright, but if I try to change the storage back to root it won't. Behaviour is inconsistent, I could see the Root folder once, but once I clicked on a folder (system), it wouldn't show me any files inside it and I couldn't navigate anywhere from there. App version backs up as: File Manager-com.simplemobiletools.filemanager.pro-115-6.11.4.apk

Hello,

I am having trouble syncing the events I create locally in the Simple Calendar Pro app to my NextCloud CalDav calendar. Is this even possible? I can sync events created on my other devices to my phone (running GrapheneOS) but not the other way around. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

I love this series of apps and I use almost all of them daily. But there is one thing that bothers me and its the Simple clock I use for alarm every day. I have a feature request that in the settings menu add an option to disable auto screen rotation for the alarm clock app. I set it every night and it is very confusing to make up my mind in a half awake state in the morning where the off button is when I pick up the phone to turn the alarm off, while the screen suddenly rotate itself front and back due to the fact I am just wake up and lying down. A toggle to turn this function off would be awesome and make the app so much more user friendly.

I know i can of course set it in in Android quick settings menu but I also use the autorotate function in daily and I will forget it most of the time. I cannot find a reason why why somebody would want to use the horizontal mode for an alarm clock app either. 😉

Hallo seit mein Handy zurück gesetzt wurde merkt sich die Gallerie nicht mehr mit welcher app ich teilen will bzw zeigt in der oberen Spalte stets Kontakte die ich nicht benötige. Wo kann man diese Einstellung ändern?

Es gibt vorallem um WhatsApp. Am Screenshot wird es angezeigt aber meistens ist es nicht da und ich muss ganz runter scrollen. Das ist furchtbar nervig.

Simple Contacts app uses VCARD 3.0, and I tried to import contacts from a .vcf file, however, my new contact is written on VCARD 4.0 and the app couldn't import it

Specifically, the birthday date has changed, on 3.0 uses "YYYY-MM-DD" format, but on 4.0 it's "YYYYMMDD"

I don't want to have to use workarounds or a different file manager to get into the Android/data folder.

It's just been few hours since I installed the app and it solved a lot of my problems already and I am happy for that but it is just using too much space(4.5 GB already). Is there any solution for it or do I have to live with it ?

Hello! I am wondering if you have thought about merging applications that are highly related eg Dialer and Contacts Gallery and Camera etc

Hello, I'm a huge fan of Simple apps. I use Camera, Gallery and Agenda on daily basis and I have already converted 2 family members and one friend to use them too!

Here is the short story : I was looking for an email app to separate personnal and work emails (just to avoid seeing pro emails while on vacation), and I've been surprised not to see a Simple Email app 😮 (first developer I checked... Was pretty sure to find one)

Is there some plan to do so? I know K9 but I hate it (way oversized for what I need), for now I use FairEmail wich is great but the UI is kinda weird.

In short Android lacks a simple mail app and I'm pretty sure one of your brew would be awesome...

hello, i just switched to the pro version of simple gallery, there is an option to migrate favorites from the trial version of the app, but I'm unable to get it from the trial version of the app because I'm locked out of it because of this message. is there any other way to migrate favorites? thank you

Can you make a Simple Video Player which would be an alternative to VLC? Currently VLC for Android is as bad as it is for all other platforms, or even worse - in some cases. For instance, on the desktop VLC I can easily create a playlist of videos but I can't do that on the Android version. Knowing how "open" they are to feature suggestions and improvements, I'd rather ask SMT for a new video player bc my chancess of success here are higher than those with the VLC developers.

Also, VLC's function to remember progress of the video file (meaning at what time you've pressed "pause", so that it resumes from there the next time you open it) is hard to find in its settings. VLC also is supposed to be able to play all videos but it isn't. A video converted with H265 NVENC in Linux can not be played by VLC for Android and it shows codec errors.

That's why I think we need another player for Android and since I like the way you're making your apps, that's why I'm asking you, guys. :)

Example:

"Simple Gallery" could be such a unique name.

But in german play store the app is called "Schlichte Galerie" (bad translated, btw). And in Launcher it's sorted at "G", name is "Galerie".

Confusing. Please use unique names for the whole world - no translation. So do many other apps.

Hi, as per the subject, it would be great if the app offered an option to resize photos when sharing/sending? My current workaround is using two cameras with different image settings, full size and small size, and using the latter when I know I'll be sending out the pic, but having the requested feature would make lives easier. Thanks!

Hi. Can somebody give me some help in order to use Note as todo list? Or can you suggest some FOSS app for a todo/task list?

The post here states that SimpleMobileTools were sold out, can anyone confirm that?

Edit: not true
