¶Sync (with Desktop)
Syncthing !!!:
p2p file sharing "dropbox/gdrive alternative"
couldn't make it work (with small effort put into it) for CHT internals
I have to manually restart server almost everytime I want to sync. syncing ~30GB >> since last update it works great
VNC Viewer:
[!!] FIND FLOSS ALTERNATIVE
[!] Is there a RealVNC alternative for server?
QR (probably not useful IRL):
QRStream (android):
"""provide for communication with a device without using radios or USB port. This can be very useful in a handful of obscure situations."""
zbarcam:
sudo apt-get zbar-tools
Terminal QR code --> Barcode Scanner:
Use: to quickly send short (<200 char) texts over. Maybe more with quality parameter.
sudo npm install -g qrcode-terminal; qrcode-terminal 'test'

¶Maps
* OsmAnd
* install & download the maps you need
* configure track-saving ... document this [!]
* Ok, also learn how to use it. Quite a lot of stuff.
* Contributing to OSM would be interesting too:
>> lol, +M has a non-competition clause (until may 2018)
* also see 🔗workflow (\Maps)
____________________
Google Maps (offline)
Google My Maps
?Google Earth
?Google Streetvew (actually photosphere view?)
?Here maps (smooth, offline)
Wikipedia (nearby, but also in marble and OsmAnd)

¶Communication
Telegram (Mobile + Desktop) +
WeChat (for access to China)
WhatsApp:
don't give access to contacts, use "https://wa.me/full_phone_number" trick
Signal
Twitter (get tweets from X as notifications)
?Facebook(Lite)?:
no, just use the web interface + bookmarks trick
?Signal, Telegram, Snapchat, AndChat IRC (annoying conn errors)?
>> Actually some command-line Workflow for Twitter & Fb posting would be awesome
>> Clicking in the desert on 3G sucks
>> see Desktop

¶Offline reference
Wikipedia (saved pages)
ElectroDroid (!!!!!! must have reference for elements, chips, cable pinouts, ...)
EveryWiki (impressive more for its list of wikis, than as an app):
?camping/nomad/survival/prepper/army("FM 21-76" - rather find PDF)/first aid :)
>> have a lot of this in /BOOKS ! rather invest into reading + annotation!
First Aid Training # offline health information

¶ Learn
* Duolingo (partly offline (no review / new topics))
* Memrise (fully offline)
__________ also
* This via RSS / mail http://www.transparent.com/word-of-the-day/today/spanish.html
* Set your FB to spanish
Movies: Accion Mutante, Los Chronocrimenes, Abre Los Ojos (original Vanilla Sky, still has Penelope Cruz) :)

¶Sensors
Sensors Test / Sensor Sense (incl. battery, sound dB, network, graphs with record->save to .csv) / Sensorium
>> all these can read Lux meter - can help determine best solar cell placement
%% Oscilloscope # uses mic or mic input to show oscilloscope or spectrum
%% E numbers # list of food additives and safety status
[!!] Wifi
Wifi Analyzer (nice graphs, by channel/dB)
Wigle (huge online DB)
>> have some more documented ...
>> also learn how to crack networks (WEP, WPS) + have rainbow stuff ready
"wifi wardriving app - records networks + GPS + security"
[!!] Security
[!!] MISSING
* what I really need is documented under #safety
* so a camera that can detect + react to environment
* a "perimeter security", like >20m outside of tents, to give you advance warning
* ... and NIGHT CAPABLE >> RPi camera has no IR filter (see hardware)
* ... http://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/questions/31382/motion-detection-in-a-large-number-of-photos-from-a-webcam

¶ Computational photography
A better camera: http://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Almalence >> HDR and Night mode are really good, but free version is nagging
devCam: iterate over camera parameters - for research datasets, doesn't work on my phone
Wishlist: long exposure,HDR,super-resolution(or 20MP+ camera),change amplification(heartbeat),medical,"sensor replacement" learning
?Photosphere that works without gyro? >> 360 panorama

¶ Analysis/Detection
Color analysis / Camera color picker -> Uros
HydroColor: Water quality app... paid, needs 18% Grey patch :)
CamScanner / Office Lens... paper detection and flattening, OCR, ...:
"take pictures of documents and they are automatically adjusted and cleaned so it looks like scanned"
Barcode scanner (QR, barcode, and obscure code formats)
...: color/image analysis, computer vision/machine learning
Google PlaNet:
(Not an app)
, geolocation from image alone, 1000km median error for now

¶——— NEW/UNSORTED ———
* Automate - task automation / programming flows ... looks powerful:
"Snap photo" instead of google search! (drag up on O icon)!!!
PROJECT: Could be used to setup a timelapse cam - leave an android somewhere cool for a day, snap image every 5min
----------
a visual programming language for task automation on android (e.g. take picture every 10 seconds, turn on wifi when GPS is 20m from home location, ...)
* Red Moon - like f.lux / RedShift for android (set temperature (eliminate blue light), dim, ...)
% Chibe:
http://github.com/raatmarien/chibe
Vibrates every X minutes for time keeping
Configurable vibration pattern
Stereo test:
# Says "left" and "right" on the correct channels - useful for audio output test
Libreoffice Viewer
Wallapop:
# find local sellers of stuff @Spain
ColorNote Notepad Notes:
# good app for notes - you can put files on home screen and edit with double-click
