There are multiple apps that want $1.99/mo for the privilege of making a collage, Instagram Layout has been broken for years now, and the first party solutions (particularly Google Photos) are overengineered in some big ways (like not allowing you to make a collage without some kind of border) and underengineered in others (like not allowing you to choose an image from a search, make a different search, and then choose another image). And as far as I can tell the only way to actually put one image on top of another is to use Double Exposure on Snapseed. We've had this problem solved on Windows for literally my entire life, and I'm pushing 40. So why can't we figure out basic, no frills raster editing on mobile? I'm not even talking about layers (though, yes please).

It was a handmedown from my parents. I don't really like the lack of hardware support on the Android side (parts availability). Not exactly like it's much better on the iPhone side either. So I went with the PinePhone. Linux on there is very barebones but at least the parts are available. If I am going to use my phone in a barebones manner then why buy in to an expensive fixed life device? Not exactly a knowledgeable user. Just another user frustrated by the subscription/throwaway economy. I realize this wasn't really a relevant answer to your question but more how I adapted to the worthless app store. BTW, one of the few apps I did purchase was 1Password. $60 for the Mac app and $40 for the iOS app. So $100 all in all. Those ass hats switched to subscription only the very next version citing we need funds to further develop the security. That plus a couple other examples is why I gave up on paid proprietary software on both devices. I'm full force trying to find FOSS solutions instead.

HOWEVER, it doesn't mean it wouldn't actually work. Google Play store just started doing this crap based on target API version. Due to that I often search Google for apps, check results from Play Store, and try getting an APK somewhere if I find app that looks interesting. The risk of that is obvious, just like with mod apks. Edit: In case you trust me (which you really shouldn't as I am just a stranger), I used this APK extractor: F-Droid link Github link And uploaded the APK here: https://d.kuku.lu/ss3xcf7fe VirusTotal report shows the hash matches already checked Joint Pics_1.2.0_Apkpure.apk so it seems unmodified by the APK extractor (well, that's what it said before my checks anyway as it uses filename from last previous check).

[–] ky56@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 child) The answer is that app stores are designed to rake users over the coals for all the money they can. Part of the reason I have never made my phone the center of my computing. It's too expensive and crap of an experience. I have just always made a habit of carrying around my laptop almost everywhere. I have an old phone (now PinePhone) for calls, texts, music, basic web browsing and internet tethering for the laptop. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) Right, but you could say that about...anything. And there are FOSS solutions on FDroid and even the Play Store for a ton of other problems, so why not image editing? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ky56@aussie.zone 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) I suppose I hadn't considered nor know much about slideloaded solutions as my previous phone was an iPhone 5c. It was a handmedown from my parents. I don't really like the lack of hardware support on the Android side (parts availability). Not exactly like it's much better on the iPhone side either. So I went with the PinePhone. Linux on there is very barebones but at least the parts are available. If I am going to use my phone in a barebones manner then why buy in to an expensive fixed life device? Not exactly a knowledgeable user. Just another user frustrated by the subscription/throwaway economy. I realize this wasn't really a relevant answer to your question but more how I adapted to the worthless app store. BTW, one of the few apps I did purchase was 1Password. $60 for the Mac app and $40 for the iOS app. So $100 all in all. Those ass hats switched to subscription only the very next version citing we need funds to further develop the security. That plus a couple other examples is why I gave up on paid proprietary software on both devices. I'm full force trying to find FOSS solutions instead.

HOWEVER, it doesn't mean it wouldn't actually work. Google Play store just started doing this crap based on target API version. Due to that I often search Google for apps, check results from Play Store, and try getting an APK somewhere if I find app that looks interesting. The risk of that is obvious, just like with mod apks. Edit: In case you trust me (which you really shouldn't as I am just a stranger), I used this APK extractor: F-Droid link Github link And uploaded the APK here: https://d.kuku.lu/ss3xcf7fe VirusTotal report shows the hash matches already checked Joint Pics_1.2.0_Apkpure.apk so it seems unmodified by the APK extractor (well, that's what it said before my checks anyway as it uses filename from last previous check).
