Is there any proprietary Android app for which you wish there would be an open-source alternative? (lemmy.ml)

Basically, what the title says. Do you use any app, that is proprietary, but either has no OSS alternatives or they're all not good enough? If there is an alternative, what keeps you from switching?

I was so pissed the other day while pulling out of the driveway that my paid copy of Symfonium wouldn't work at all. It needed permission from daddy google to start but didn't have an internet connection at the moment. Fuck that shit I gave you my money!
