Simple Mobile apps have been very popular among FOSS enthusiasts. I’ve personally been using the Gallery, Contacts and the Phone app since a few years now. It’s a shame that it has come to this, will be on the lookout for their forks.

    For posterity, but also for forks if the repos go down, I have created https://github.com/SimplerMobileTools and downloaded all the original repos, branches, and tags which will soon be uploaded there.

    I have already got SM Gallery compiling, so thats a start, and will upload all the repos tomorrow when its not so late.

    Note: Any former maintainer of SMT will be added on to SrMT upon request.

    EDIT: All forks updated with notice of rationale and link to this discussion.

    EDIT2: https://github.com/FossifyOrg is a soft fork created by one of the current maintainers. I will keep the hard fork up just in case.

      Now you need to change the names and make these new names famous, since that’s the thing that the company has really bought. The brand.

      Not all heroes wear capes. Thank you for your service. A hero among thieves. The hero we didn’t know we needed and didn’t deserve. Insert other hero quips.

      Na but thanks. What a legend.
