Not what you were asking, but delta chat is an app that turns email into chat. Same premise.
I use the f droid store as a launcher almost more than I use my launcher’s native feature when I have to use an app thats not on the home screen. I can’t remember the weird names people give their projects so I just search for what I need and open whatever is already installed.
I use bitwarden password manager to keep notes about websites because it loads in the sidebar according to URL automatically. (More useful on desktop than mobile.)
I fucking love Arcane/Delta Chat I made it my main email client. Murena.io is the best free option with compatibility I have found. There is a rate limit of one email sent per five minutes for it tho. It’s a great way to stack a bunch of aliasing accounts. I use Tutanota to make the emails for the Murena accounts.
One weird trick that will change your life (unironically) is setting custom notification sounds for various email reply chains and other Arcane Chat groups. Cheogram for XMPP can do this even better. I wish they could adopt all of each other’s features. This may sound like it has limited usefulness to anyone who hasn’t played around with feeding bots & RSS feeds into other chat services for portability, convenience, etc, but it can be used to unify all kinds of things. The Mastodon bot is very useful
It’s tucked away in the menu but the backups for Arcane Chat are very easy to use, totally extensive due to the storage-based nature of the protocol, with the disadvantage of not being encrypted, automated, and password-locked
If you have trouble remembering app names precisely, I recommend KISS Launcher. Although it is very search-heavy, it has a terrific tagging system. I’d recommend alphabetizing your tags though as it is slightly quirky. Tagging home screen shortcuts is my crack. So, I guess that’s my answer to OP as well. Nothing like KISS I am aware of. Best way to use Android.
