How "open-source" is your phone in %?

It'd be interesting to have an app to measure that!

I'm running GrapheneOS, so out of 82 apps on my phone only 10 packages aren't open-source. These include social media, messaging, banking, and Google Play Store/services. So around 88% FOSS.

I only use proprietary software on my device if there doesn't exist a FOSS alternative*.

‎

*I know there are open-source options for social media/messaging but I don't really consider having to convert my whole social circle to a new platform to be a viable alternative.

97.05% of my apps are FOSS, running on LineageOS with no google apps or play services obviously

1 app on 76 apps is not open-source. So 98.7% of my apps are open-source !

I have 50 apps total.

Of the 50, 17 are system apps that can’t be removed (iPhone), leaving me with 33 apps that I’ve installed.

Of the 33 installed apps, 17 are self hosted and/or fully or partially open source apps & services, which works out to 51%

Edit to add: I choose open source whenever possible.

I have 22 apps in total, including system apps, and excluding Apple apps (I have an iPhone) I have 15. I think about 9 of my apps are open-source, so…

If you count the Apple apps: 9/22 = ~0.409 (~40.9%).
If you only count non-system apps: 9/15 = 0.6 (60%).

I do plan on getting rid of some apps soon though, so it’s subject to change.

Edit: Fix formatting.

I’m guessing a lot of it seeing how tons of apps use open source components and libraries whenever possible.

I have slightly too many apps to count...

Well like 50% of my apps are open source but I still use android so I mean, how open source is it really. Anyone know of FOSS launchers? I currently use Niagara and it looks great but I'd love something open source

Very few apps. I’m just trying to encrypt as much as possible, because I think the most important thing is to stay in control of my information. Hopefully a proper Linux phone will emerge at some point. I have experimented with the Pinephone and it’s promising, but there is still a lot of work to do.

non AOSP android might as well be 2% with the amount of garbage google unloads onto it lol

I have 284 apps including system apps and excluding system services. With system services, it's 567. I counted 186 explicitly installed. It's hard to tell which ones are open source, as not all of those are from F-Droid.
I counted 48.

So roughly 25% of what I installed.

I have a Samsung S22 Ultra. I just have firefox on it... so I dunno. Like zero percent probably.

My hardware 0%. My software well i got a foss os and mostly use foss apps but have some non-free apps i need cos other people are not enlightened and i still need to communicate with them. An estimate maybe 80-90% foss.

Ik u asked about non privacy respecting phones but i had to weigh in anyways. (On google pixel with graphene os and find most my apps on fdroid)

%99 if not %100

~150 total and 67 on f-droid/neo store so like half is FOSS

like 70%

I'd say about 90-95%. I use open-source GrapheneOS, get most of my apps from F-Droid and only need a hand full of proprietary apps like WhatsApp or Instagram (because basically all of my friends and family use them).
