Friendly heads up - Simple Mobile Tools was sold to ZipoApps¹, a company known for adding ads and privacy-invasive stuff. Their reputation is bad enough F-Droid preemptively turned off automatic updates², and the community has moved on to the Fossify organization, including Fossify Gallery³.

It's unfortunate folks didn't step up to help before the sale⁴, but ah well - progress has been made now.
