Is there any closed source android app that you wish had a good open source alternative?

Why do you believe I haven't found the correct one?

Edit: I'm looking at the Play store since F-Droid doesn't have ratings or feedback. I look for apps on the Play store, find something interesting, and then look for the F-Droid version.
It doesn't have any rating (or maybe it just doesn't show them to me) and you said that it has a rating of 3.6. There is another app called the same that has rating of 3.7
The Play store link I provided doesn't show a rating to you?
no, it might be because there aren't any reviews in my language. But they could still show the star count, weird
How strange. You would think the star rating would always show regardless of regional settings and you would think reviews are also shown but with a translate button next to each review given that's not the same as what's set in your regional settings - the same as on Google Maps.
I feel like you should just download the apps and test them yourself instead of only going by ratings. These are free apps, and it takes a few minutes to see if something has the feature or feel you want. Once you uninstall a launcher, android goes back to the previous with all its configurations as it was, so you don't need to risk your previous setup. Just a suggestion of what I do, because I find that for something as particular as a phone launcher, ratings are often incomplete information.
