Although seeing Nine will no longer actively being worked on, I might stick with K-9, it's been a long time since I last used it and honestly quite liking it, even if it's limited to IMAP instead of EAS for MS accounts.

Is there a app that shows full details of a battery drain, I use Accubattery and I'm getting 6-7% discharge over night, no apps are are active according to Accubattery. It's a Samsung phone.

I've always used 3C All-in-one, although it is better on rooted phones, where it lets you tweak the cores/governor etc.
Still has useful monitoring stuff in it

Cheers I will have a look, I'm not rooted but hopefully it will give me a idea of whats causing the drain.

Does Google Photos really not have the ability to flip an image

Feels weird installing an entire app for something so basic but does anyone know a nice simple one?

Huh, never noticed it lacked the option. Google's Snapseed app can do it but it's not had any significant updates in a very long while. Simple Gallery can also flip photos, although I recommend grabbing the F-droid version as it'll have all the features unlocked in the pro version on the Play store.

Snapseed does seem to do the job and has the option to launch it from the edit menu inside Google Photos which isn't too bad, will see if I encounter any issues due to the lack of updates.

I guess Google's thought is that they work out if it needs flipping and auto suggest it for you. But still rather dumb

Anyone using the lloyds bank app?

Are. You having trouble logging in after the lastest update?

By flip, so you mean rotate?

I'm now having to move from Chrome to Firefox on my Tab as I'm using Bitwarden on a old android version. Firefox seems to autofill all websites Chrome doesn't seem to want to play nicely. One thing with Firefox if you add a website to the homescreen with certain websites it doesn't show the website icon it's just white, is this normal behaviour with Firefox?

I've tried a few and seem to keep coming back to Poweramp. Worth a look and try. My use case is using it to listen to old radio shows which I've downloaded as mp3 and place in a folder.

Yeah I used Poweramp yonks ago and is brilliant. Not used it for a while so might need to give the new version a go as well.

I don't think they have an app, but I use Buxfer. I also don't know if they have a free offering.
