LibreFind is a free and lightweight Android app that scans your installed packages locally and queries our database to identify proprietary software and find FOSS alternatives.

Core Features

Scan installed apps to detect proprietary software
Get FOSS alternative recommendations
View sovereignty scores showing FOSS vs proprietary ratio
Community-driven database

Community Contributions

Propose new FOSS alternatives for review
Submit pros and cons for existing alternatives
Vote on app recommendations
Help build a comprehensive alternative database

The app only queries the database for FOSS alternatives when proprietary apps are detected.

LibreFind is fully open source under the GPL-3.0-or-later License. Contribute at: https://github.com/jksalcedo/librefind

WhatsNew:

- In-app logs and diagnostic reports export with custom storage location
- Fix FOSS apps wrongly classified as proprietary or unknown
- Improve installer and store detection on Android 11+
- Fix remote solutions cache truncation
- Allow submitting app feedback, corrections, and alternatives without an account
- Display pending community alternative submissions on app details page
- Add button to pending apps on the dashboard linking to community submissions
- Fix reputation score issue for Guest

Anti-Features:

TetheredNet (This app is bound to a certain network service):
⇒ The app needs to connect to its central database (Supabase).

While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).

Libraries:

Android Support v4 (Development Framework)
The Android Support Library is not actually a single library, but rather a collection of libraries that can roughly be divided into two groups: compatibility and component libraries. For details, please see Understanding the Android Support Library.
AppCompat (Utility)
support newer Android features on older Android versions.
Jetpack Compose (Development Framework)
a framework to define UIs programmatically with composable functions that describe its shape and data dependencies.
Androidx Core (Utility)
a static library that you can add to your Android application in order to use APIs that are either not available for older platform versions or utility APIs that aren't a part of the framework APIs.
Android Emoji2 Compat (UI Component)
core library to enable emoji compatibility in Kitkat and newer devices to avoid the empty emoji characters.
Androidx Graphics (Utility)
leverages graphics facilities across multiple Android platform releases.
Lifecycle (Utility)
perform actions in response to a change in the lifecycle status of another component, such as activities and fragments.
ProfileInstaller (Utility)
AndroidX library that enables libraries to prepopulate ahead of time compilation traces to be read by ART.
Room (Utility)
a persistence library that provides an abstraction layer over SQLite to allow for more robust database access while harnessing the full power of SQLite.
Startup (Utility)
AndroidX library to implement a straightforward, performant way to initialize components at app startup.
Android Jetpack VersionedParcelable (Utility)
Provides a stable but relatively compact binary serialization format that can be passed across processes or persisted safely.
Jetpack WindowManager Library (Utility)
enables application developers to support new device form factors and multi-window environments. The library provides a common API surface for API versions 14 and later. Especially provides additional functionality on foldable devices.
WorkManager (Utility)
an API that makes it easy to schedule deferrable, asynchronous tasks that must be run reliably .
Multiplatform Settings (Utility)
a Kotlin library for Multiplatform apps, so that common code can persist key-value data.
OkHttp (Utility)
OkHttp is an HTTP+HTTP/2 client for Android and Java applications.
Supabase (Development Framework)
an open source Firebase alternative.
Ktor (Development Framework)
framework for quickly creating connected applications in Kotlin with minimal effort.
Kotlin (Utility)
