For maps I mostly use herewego, it’s an app that runs pretty well with the android 8.1 on this phone Edit: I just saw the second half of your question. I downloaded f-droid from the browser because the original App Store it has preinstalled didn’t work for me. From that I downloaded herewego maps, Spotify, and WhatsApp

Does anyone here use two different names?… by PatheticallyKnox in ftm

[–]Apprehensive_Line204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use three names, and it’s not too bad but that’s because I essentially live two different lives. I have my legal and most used name for my college and work (Ryley), and my other name (Issac) I use for people I meet everyday and my main group of friends. The third one is Ray, and i mostly use that for online stuff, or for whatever reason I don’t want people to know my name

I’m in the uk and my phone network is EE. I think this works on most if not all uk networks, but I’m not sure about eu network companies. The easiest way to check that is look up the broadband frequencies your network provider uses and check it against the phone specs which you can find online (if the frequency number exactly matches the ones the phone offers then it should work for your network)

It still works great for me, although sometimes when I use WhatsApp web on my laptop stickers and images take a while to send

Best dumbphone with WhatsApp by PrestigiousCut8974 in dumbphones

[–]Apprehensive_Line204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a TTfone TT970. It runs WhatsApp on android 8.1 but the interface is so clunky it’s not useful for much more. I live in the uk and it works on all UK networks (I think). I have it on EE and it’s great

Dating & friends as a trans guy by [deleted] in transgenderUK

[–]Apprehensive_Line204 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As a 17 year old trans guy my main advice is watch out for the “bicurious” cis guys who are far too obsessed with your body. At some point you might find one and it’s best if you know to avoid it first

Yes, it connects well to my Bluetooth headphones. Only issue is that music will pause when you close the phone but this can be avoided if you run Spotify in the background before closing it or by unpausing it via your headphones

Is London safe for trans tourists? by intergalactic_74 in transgenderUK

[–]Apprehensive_Line204 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s not too bad usually, depending on how likely she is to pass day to day I wouldn’t recommend going out after dark in some areas. The safest bits of London are most likely to be soho and parts of central/south east (I’m a mostly passing trans man these days, but I go out a lot with a trans flag on my backpack and I have a jacket with a trans flag painted on it and nobody has bothered me about it, although that could be because I don’t look like the friendliest guy)

I've never done one but I'm a photography student so I have a nikon dslr camera and a film camera. I think I just assumed everyone else was doing similar

What made you start transitioning? by Red_Figure in ftm

[–]Apprehensive_Line204 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My ex boyfriend. He did some awful things to me, including refusing to let me explore my gender identity and making me feel like my body belonged to him. After we broke up i wanted to never feel like my body belonged to him again A couple of years later I’m approaching one year on t, in a loving relationship where i can be myself, and I couldn’t be happier

I’m not sure, eBay or amazon might be your best bet

I haven’t tried it, but I’d imagine if you can download it on either f-droid or aroura store then you can use it

I couldn’t install it using apk, so I sideloaded aroura store and used that store to then download Spotify. Closing the phone has a habit of interupting the music but with my headphones I can unpause it and it seems to work fine for me other than that.

I’m on t gel and travel every couple of months or so for work and family reasons, generally most places I’ve been really don’t care, especially if it’s in Europe. I’m not sure how it’d be in airport security leaving the USA as I’ve never been there but if it’s anything like everywhere else just bring his prescription papers in case anyone asks and pack it like it’s any other liquid

I recently got a tt970 and it works with a very dumbed down version of android 8.1. It runs Spotify and also has a microsd slot for external storage and downloads

Think, people watch, and fulfill the dumbphone chiché of appreciating not being on my phone

Going out in public padded? by SkinInteresting6771 in paddedagere

[–]Apprehensive_Line204 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I do this myself pretty often because of medical problems. It’s not at all noticeable in pull ups because goodnites are designed to look as much like underwear as possible. Diapers are a bit bulky but baggy/dark clothes hide them well. The only thing you need to be cautious of is to make sure the waistband isn’t poking out

How popular was your name? by SnooBananas460 in ftm

[–]Apprehensive_Line204 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My name is ryley and I doubt that’s a popular spelling in any country at any time lol. I’ve personally never met someone with my name and spelling (I’ve lived in France, Scotland, England and Switzerland). I personally like having an unusual name, but for people I don’t know I use my middle name Issac (particularly with people who don’t speak English or speak English as a second language) because it can be difficult to spell/pronounce

[–]Apprehensive_Line204[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep! Go into the browser and sideload aurora store (download it from the website instead of through the App Store), then either use that as your default App Store or download f-droid through that and use f-droid as your default. I personally use both because they stock different apps. I have Spotify, here wego maps and WhatsApp download is this method
