Hopefully it's not against the rules, if so, please let me know and I'll remove the post. Anyway:
I made an educational open source game for small kids (2-6 yo) where they can match cute animals (currently sea and dinosaur theme packs).
Features:
- cute pictures
- works on both a phone and a tablet
- multiple theme packs
- fully free, no tracking or anything
- there are multiple flavours, one of which bundles all of the assets and doesn't even have the permission to access the internet <- great if you're extra cautious
- big buttons, no reading necessary, small kids friendly
It can be downloaded both from GitHub and the Play Store.

Let me know what you think!
I really hope you keep believing in the value of your app and never stop developing it. It might sound like a small step towards overall more privacy, but every kid who use your opensource and private app instead of the ads and trackers filled closed source apps is a person who is not benefiting the Capitalism which is killing people privacy.
Thanks for the kind words! This app (like pretty much everything open source I ever did) stemmed from needing an app like that but not finding any and every little "Contains ads" in the Play Store listing made me a little sadder that vultures are trying to attack even the most vulnerable.
The only other good one I found had a different problem, a good old greediness (every theme was a separate app, each unlocked with an in-app purchase, meaning you cannot buy once and use on all family member's devices, the unlock was $2, but multiply it with 4 apps and 4 devices and it gets quite expensive for such a simple game). I'm fine with that in general, but given I'm a developer, I decided to offer people a better alternative.
So yeah, I believe in it and I'm glad someone sees it that way.
Seriously, thanks, I think it's been quite a while since some online stranger said something so nice to me!
