A simple equalizer app that applies to all any app audio source and any output, be it speaker or bluetooth. Has no balance feature.

Phenomenal; simple. Mandatory/loved because bluetooth headphones are often manufacturer bass-boosted with no ability to disable it.

A simple mapping program which can optionally track your position ongoing, to let you easily follow breadcrumbs back to your start (like a parked car).

- Usable disabled just as a simple map app.

A fantastic mid-range phone, notable for a 6,150 mAh battery, NFC and near-stock Android 10.

Abandoned, as CVE-2022-0847 was not fixed.
Subject to the dirty Pipe security exploit (CVE-2022-0847).
The whole company is not recommended, as they neither update their devices nor even remove spam on their forum e.g. this.
