Obligatory note for those that haven’t read/retained the news: Simple Mobile Tools was sold to ZipoApps - an Israeli company that specialises in buying and monetising popular apps.

Fossify is the fork of the Simple Mobile Tools repos, and they’re gradually getting through each app and re-releasing them under the new name.

    It wasn’t the simple mobile tools that was sold to zippoapps. It was the privacy of its userbase. SMT would have been worth nothing without that userbase - no matter how its developer wanted to spin it.
