@keneda Yes it seems, in terms of app support, UT has almost everything. Thankyou. But do the work reliably? Reviews show less ratings. So do apps, like uNav or other utility apps crash or something? I don't use facebook or other useless crap, but i need reliable basic functions.

RE: Ubuntu Touch on Redmi Note 7 as a daily driver for a casual usage?
@stanwood Thankyou. I went through you article, it almost covers everything. Although there are issues still present, but I'd prefer UBtouch over android for sure. Can you leave some insights on the need to troubleshoot or the need to connect with a pc? I mean as a mobile OS I don't want to frequently connect my pc to code and troubleshoot something. It's not that I can't, but shouldn't need to spend too much time.
Feature, apps, reliability etc are covered in your post. Thankyou again. -
Ubuntu Touch on Redmi Note 7 as a daily driver for a casual usage?
Hey guys! This isn't "what works, what doesn't" question. I'm wondering, is there anyone using this as a day to day phone? With no other devices. Not as a developer, but as a student or 9 to 5 worker, or etc. I know there are some issues and a different experience from your google ridden android. But is it enough for daily use? I am a linux user. Not a developer. And focused on improving privacy. This seems perfect and amazing.
Although, few months back, I installed this using ubports, but my device had no network. It didn't read the sim and basically it wasn't something I'd use.
Now it seems everything works almost perfectly. So, is anyone facing any problems that you don't wanna tackle everyday by reading through forums and troubleshooting? For someone who dont wanna spend time trying to make basic things work every day or so.
What about app support? I know open store has almost everything you need, but do they work? For ex, a safe but usable google maps alternative? Or whatsapp web (I hate whatsapp but all the internships and college groups tend to use it)
I hope i was able to express my concern. Please share any insights. I'm on the verge to say goodbye to android and use linux everywhere.
