This is a shoutout to the app QuickTiles and the developer and contributors thereof.
While at first glance it may not seem like a privacy focused app, however, ultimately, improving digital privacy is more often than not a balance between convenience/ease of use and, well, privacy^[There will always be know-it-alls and above-it-alls in the privacy community who trashtalk normies and/or beginners, acting like this and that is never a tradeoff. If you happen to be one of those, think about whether your attitude helps or hampers our efforts.]
I was almost about to let out a big sigh, thinking do I have to learn kotlin and java for this…? and then I found this app. It has some neat “add-ons” for the quick tiles panel on Android systems. Personally, I was looking for a quick setting to enable/disable data saver. This app had a “data usage” tile, which reduces the amount of requires “clicks” from 5 to 2.
