Were you able to access WhatsApp?
it reads incoming messages and allows you to respond by dictating

Any suggestions for a simple notepad/memo type app?


Notepad Reminder
The most convenient app for me. I find it to be much more basic and useful than all the other fancy ones.

I have a problem that any time I open my contacts app/select a missed call notification, truecaller opens up. I can't figure out how to deactivate it, any ideas?

I'm not sure where else this belongs.

I just found out about BaldPhone. Thought it was an interesting idea. might be good for older people



The download site is https://sites.google.com/view/baldphone/home

It's made by an Israeli so it has Hebrew support built in which is also good.

I'll looking to get shas/Talmud Bavli on my Samsung tablet, with tzuras hadaf, any suggestions?
I'm currently using the Artscroll App, as they have Berachos as a free download which is great, but I don't need the translation, so regular version will do (ideally free or low cost). Best of it can be accessed offline.

Thanks!

Okay, but for someone not looking for a shiur that would be a pain.
