This thread is ONLY to talk about Keyboards, Notes, Maps and Music Players. I add video Music Players because probably some people want to know about good FOSS alternatives.

Little context

spoilerWhy not build a megathread with the best and most reliable FOSS apps too help someone who want to join on the bright side of open source?

We (because this is not from me, this is from us) need to share thoughts, ideas and all things you want to say. Dont be shy. Upvote the comments you like and agree; disagree and tell why you disagree. This is will be different from others threads because this need a proper user opinion, and your opinions will be VERY important to build this. In short, your opinions and thoughts will be the fundamental source to build this.

I will read ALL comments to build this. Even if this has a million comments, I’m going to waste time reading it. Whatever it takes.

Your opinions about it are CRUCIAL and FUNDAMENTAL, because your opinions is the main-base to build the megathread.

Please, consider share your ideas and thoughts about apps on previous threads. Your opinions are really important to build final megathread. You can upvote or downvote posts so that comments gain strength and agreement between the community.

Does anyone know of an alternative to Hacker's Keyboard? It hasn't been updated for about 5 years and I'm worried it will stop working on newer versions of Android.

Maybe: unexpected keyboard

Had a look at it, seems to lack dedicated modifier and cursor keys. Looking specifically for a PC-style keyboard.

Look again, mine has cursor keys, Fn Ctrl Alt Meta, and you can add keys and functions (like: copy paste undo +). And you can drag spacebar to quickly/precise move in the same line.
