Simple mobile tools pro version are completely open-source and avaliable for free on fdroid. But of course I also paid on google play to support the developer, then use everything on f-droid.

I’m all for supporting developers. Usually I test an app for a month, and if it works well, I make a regular donation.

However, while trying out the free version of “Simple Gallery” from Simple Mobile Tools, they sent an update that suddenly made it only last for 14 days, then you had to upgrade to premium. I simply don’t like this kind of behaviour, that’s why I don’t use their products.

Really? I’ve been using Simple Gallery which I downloaded from F-Droid, and I’ve never seen such a thing.

The creator is Tibor Kaputa?

I don’t know who’s the creator. Here’s the app – you can also see the complaints from some users:

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simplem…

I have installed this app and never had any paywall in simple apps suite

Yeah there’s a mystery about completely different availability policies by the developer in GPlay and in FDroid…
