In their own words

App Manager

App Manager is an Android package manager for managing installed apps. It can back up and restore apps, freeze or force-stop them, uninstall them, and clear their data or cache; many actions are available in batches. Its APK scanner checks for trackers and libraries and shows checksums and signing certificates. The scanner uses static analysis, so it may miss components in highly obfuscated or packed APKs, and it does not check strings or website signatures. Internet scanning features can be enabled in settings to retrieve VirusTotal reports, upload an APK when no report exists, or link to a Pithus report. Profiles can be triggered by third-party apps such as Automation or Tasker through intents and an authorization key. Root or ADB modes support operations such as managing apps across users and blocking app components. App Manager is free, with binaries listed through F-Droid, IzzyOnDroid, GitHub releases, and Telegram. The manual identifies Muntashir Al-Islam as maintainer and warns against using previous versions because they may contain security vulnerabilities.

SmarterSelect

SmarterSelect is application-management software for scholarship, grant, award, and other programs. It helps organizations collect applications, manage applicants, evaluate submissions, and track awards. Forms support multiple question types and file attachments, with layouts for phones, tablets, and laptops. The platform can automate scoring and calculations, send email and text notifications and reminders, and track awards. Reviewers can use scoring and rubrics; administrators can create custom reports and export applicant or evaluation data as CSV or PDF files. Through Zapier, application data can be shared with more than 2,000 applications, including Salesforce and other CRM systems, without programming. Single sign-on lets users access the platform with credentials from a CRM or member-management system. Subscriptions include support, with hours of 8 AM to 6 PM Central US Monday through Friday. The no-credit-card trial has no time limit but is limited to ten users for testing. SmarterSelect says it does not sell or share personal information in providing its services and supports GDPR access, erasure, and portability requests. Plans start at $2,000 USD per year.
