Is there any proprietary Android app for which you wish there would be an open-source alternative? (lemmy.ml)

Basically, what the title says. Do you use any app, that is proprietary, but either has no OSS alternatives or they're all not good enough? If there is an alternative, what keeps you from switching?

fwiw lawnchair beta works absolutely fine for me, i guess it can't do anything fancy with the app drawer but like, that's why you have a home screen..

I tried, and tried to like it. We all work differently. I like widgets on the home screen, swipe up for apps. I guess it's the "start menu" mentality.
