I'm not exactly sure who is behind all the Fossify apps but I'm impressed with their momentum.
Incase you don't know they're all forks of existing projects from another project that sold off to some weird tech company that filled the apps with ads while stopping development

this is awesome and just replaced my last simpletools app. are thereany missing i am just not using?
Is this a fork of Simple Draw? Judging by the screenshots, I think it is. I wonder why they had decided to rename it completely, unlike their other forks.
SimpleMobileTools is a dead project that was sold to an ad tech company. It has been forked and fully replaced by the Fossify Suite of apps. All simple tools apps should be gone from fdroid now i think.
Right, but Simple Gallery became Fossify Gallery, Simple Calendar became Fossify Calendar, etc. I am wondering why Simple Draw became Fossify Paint
Oh ok now i get you, thanks. Was a bit confused there...
Solid release. Simple and usable. Will keep it to see how it progresses. Nice work!
Very nice and functional. Really good for a first release. Would love to see further investment into it, such as different brushes and things like that.
