Text Encoding Converter

Convert TXT and SRT subtitles from ANSI to UTF8 and vice versa.

"Text Encoding Converter" is a user-friendly Android app designed for converting text files and subtitles from ANSI to UTF8 and vice versa. It supports .srt and .txt files, making it easy to transform your subtitles for use on older TVs that only support ANSI. With support for various non-UTF8 languages like Greek, Thai, Arabic, Hebrew, Cyrillic, and Latin, it allows you to quickly convert files directly from your smartphone. The original file is securely saved as .orig.txt, ensuring you have a backup if needed.

Unexpectedly closes with exception after launching on Android 14.

I think some reviews are little too harsh. The UI is functional (although I would prefer if it showed the folders of internal storage in alphabetical order, instead of what appears to be a random order, but that is a minor nitpick); the app does what it promises. I was able to convert an ANSI-encoded file into UFS-8 with no issues. Edit: it appears that on Android 12 the files are no longer visible from the app. Perhaps some read permission issue? As it stands, the app is broken, unfortunately
