May I recommend OSS Document Scanner + Syncthing? Both apps are FOSS and it looks to me like that they might be able to replace what Microsoft Lens does for you with the advantage that you are free of Microsoft software.

As other user said: Organic Maps uses data from OpenStreetMap, so the best thing is to go there and see how the roads in that town can be mapped better, if bike lanes are present, and if other characteristics of the roads that make them more/less attractive to bicycles are tagged.

I understand this can seem daunting to someone who has never used OpenStreetMap, but I’d encourage you to at least add a note on the “death trap road” to let other, more experienced, users know about the issue and check the tagging of that and other roads.

Open Tracks allows exporting in either KMZ (default), KML or GPX format. Go to Settings, tap on “Import and Export” and there look, towards the end, for the entry “Export/sharing file format”.

Glad that it worked out in the end. It’s a pity that different Android versions and custom ROMs have this setting in different places, I guess this is also making it impossible for the developer to put a direct link to this setting in Heliboard that would work for all users.

MP3Tag sounds cool, but there’s no Linux version it seems :(

Found the solution to this some days ago: you need to change your System Spell checker to Heliboard.

Now the developer added it to the FAQ too:

Spell checker is not checking all languages in multilingual typing: Make sure you actually enabled HeliBoard spell checker. Usually it can be found in System Settings -> System -> Languages -> Advanced -> Spell Checker, but this may depend on Android version.

Hi sorry for the late reply. I’m not an expert here but I think I can help you with a couple of things:

I installed HeliBoard_1.2-release.apk

Then you’re fine. That’s the app intended for release. I assume you got the APK from the developers GitHub? I use F-Droid so there’s only option available.

It’s giving me suggestions, but no corrections

You could download that dictionary file that you linked, but I believe that is not necessary if your Android System language is set to English and you’re typing in English too, it should be able to use the System internal dictionary. In my case I have 4 different languages configured in Heliboard and I downloaded dictionaries 3 of them, but I didn’t need to download the one for my system language, it just uses the internal dictionary. For the other 3 languages: I downloaded their dictionary files, saved them in a safe location in my phone (I have a folder for apps Settings and backups, and I created a Heliboard subfolder where I keep my dictionaries and the glide typing library)

Regarding my old issue with changing languages and having the spell check change at the same time: I fixed that by changing the Spell checker app in Android’s System Settings. I found out about this reading a related GitHub issue and I suggested to the developer to add this information to the FAQs, which they quickly did (check the section “Spell checker is not checking all languages in multilingual typing”). You can also activate the Globe icon to Switch languages under Heliboard’s Settings: “Preferences/Additional Keys/Language Switch keys”, but I personally prefer being rid of it and just sliding on the spacebar

Than you very much! I’ve been using this app for moths and I didn’t know this. Cool feature.

You could use a FairPhone

I have the same problem. Before the official release as Heliboard, when it still was called OpenBoard (by Helium314), I could change the keyboard languages with the small keyboard icon on the bottom right of my screen and it would change the language AND there spelling dictionary, but by swiping up from the spacebar only the language would change, with the spelling dictionary still on the first language.

Now on Heliboard I don’t even have that possibility, since the small keyboard icon on the bottom right only shows one entry for Heliboard, not several (one for each language) as it used to be before.

Is the area properly mapped in OpenStreetMap? Organic Maps uses OpenStreetMap data, if addresses are not present there, then it’s up to the users to add them.

Did he, though?

That’s shit. I don’t want stuff installed on my phone without my knowledge

100% agree. I’ve always been shocked to see people claiming that automatic app updates are good for security. Having stuff being installed in the background on your device without your knowledge is good for security?

I understand the “we roll out an important security update and it quickly updates for all users” situation. However, I still want to chose what you install on my device. Look at what just happen with Simple Mobile Tools, how many unaware Google Play users now have spyware installed on their phones?

I’ve made a habit of opening GitHub issues asking for a changelog on those apps that I use that don’t provide one. Most developers are open and helpful, some are not.

The worst experience so far was with Wikipedia, they provide poor update information (usual “we update our app regularly to being you improvements”) and replied weeks later with “that’s what most apps do”.

RHvoice is text-to-speech (TTS), what OP is asking for is the opposite: speech-to-text (aka voice recognition).

I would add iodéOS to the Operating Systems, and Helium314’s fork of OpenBoard to the keyboards.

$1 would be overpriced

Year One. I can’t stand Jack Black nor Michael Cera after wasting 90 minutes of my life watching that trash.

I don’t believe the small phone gang is small, we just have one option: a pretty expensive iPhone mini.

I want a small phone but not an iPhone, I have no option therefore manufactures assume I want a humongous phone. That’s flawed logic.
