## Android apps

- [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/), an app store that proposes only free and open source applications.
- [K9 mail](https://k9mail.app/), available in F-Droid, a mail client compatible with most email providers.

- [Blokada](https://blokada.org/index.html), an app to prevent your phone from connecting to sites you don't want to allow.
- If you want to install [Signal](https://signal.org/) or [Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/) and get automatic updates, you can install it through F-Droid. To do so, you will need to and an extra F-Droid repository. To do so: 
    - Open F-droid, go to settings –> Repositories and then add (via the plus "+" button on the top-right corner) the following custom list in the `repository address field`: `https://rfc2822.gitlab.io/fdroid-firefox/fdroid/repo` (just type this text in)
    - Then go back to F-Droid and swipe down to trigger the refreshing of the app list, you can now find signal and firefox in the list.

## Encryption:

- Gnupg, Veracrypt (for files)
- LUKS (for whole disk, the easiest way is to set it up when installing your system)

## Password managers:

- [keepassxc](https://keepassxc.org/), [guide on how to use it](https://ssd.eff.org/en/module/how-use-keepassxc)
- [pass](https://www.passwordstore.org/), a very nice password manager, in the terminal, based on standard technologies (gpg+git), (with autofilling of login forms in browser using [this plugin](https://github.com/browserpass/browserpass-extension), and [a compatible android app](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.zeapo.pwdstore/))
