It’s been a while since the last time this was asked, so here goes again: what specific apps do you use Waydroid to run?

Whenever I get the itch to play around with this impressive project, I quickly remember that I can’t think of anything to actually do with it. There’s already a Linux native app for almost everything that isn’t an ad infested game, so I’m curious if anyone has use cases for Waydroid that they can share. I’d love to hear about something cool that I didn’t think of!

    When you install whatsapp, if you deny it permission to access your phone number, or if it doesn’t find one, it allows you to enter a phone number manually. It then sends a confirmation text with a code to verify the number, just like any other website.

    I used an old (non-smart) phone with a burner sim to receive the confirmation text.
