ANeko Reborn vs Com-Phone Story Maker
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
ANeko Reborn
Bring the classic desktop cat to life on your Android screen with ANeko Reborn—a modern remake of the original Neko software and its Android ports ANeko and ANeko Plus. Originally popular on early computer systems, Neko was a tiny animated cat that followed your cursor across the screen. ANeko Reborn revives this nostalgic experience for modern Android devices, bringing back the charm of a playful cat companion that moves freely over your interface. ANeko Reborn is built for smooth performance and updated compatibility while staying true to the spirit of the originals. Features: • Enjoy a virtual cat that walks, sits, and sleeps on your screen • Switch between different classic and custom Neko skins • Designed for modern Android versions with improved stability • Based on the legacy of nekoDA, oneko, ANeko, and other similar apps Whether you remember Neko from your desktop days or are just discovering it for the first time, ANeko Reborn is a delightful and nostalgic companion that runs right on your phone.

Com-Phone Story Maker
Com-Phone Story Maker helps you create multimedia narratives, combining photos, audio and text in exciting ways to tell digital stories. The app's simple interface helps you create your own photo slideshows to document your life; send to other devices running the application or play back locally; create templates; export as a movie; upload to YouTube; or, save a web version to self-publish. Each story can include any number of media frames. Each individual frame of the story can include an image or photo, up to three layered audio or music tracks, and text content. Anything in a frame can be edited at any time – for example, you can pause audio recording and then resume later, or load pictures from your media library. All elements of each frame are optional. For example, Com-Phone can also be used as an annotated photo diary, a simple audio recorder, a text and sound tool for discussion about current events, or even a multimedia survey app. A simple printable user manual is available at: https://digitaleconomytoolkit.org/manuals/com-phone.pdf. Com-Phone is completely free, with no adverts and no unnecessary permissions. The app is open source as part of the Com-Me toolkit – you can fork any of the Com-Me tools on GitHub: https://github.com/communitymedia.
