  • KDE Connect: Transfer files, clipboard, notifications between your phone and computer on your local network.
  • Unit Lab: Easy converter. Allows you to add different units together (eg. 5kg + 10lb + 4 stone).
  • Seal: Great front-end for yt-dlp. Allows you to download YT/IG/TikTok videos. Would like to see IG image download support.
  • AVNC: VNC client, allowing me to remotely access my laptop from my phone via local network.
  • Binary Eye: Barcode scanner with the option to turn on scan history.
  • Copy: Copy text from apps that otherwise may not allow you to copy text. Also allows for easy taking of screenshots.
  • Save To...: Useful for saving certain files that sometimes don't give the option to save.
  • Secure Tether: Share your mobile data as a hotspot for other phones/computers, bypassing your provider's restrictions on hotspot.
