The name of the organization is FUTO. It's not just Rossman, it's also the rich guy that came up with the concept and hired Rossman and other people who are building multiple FUTOish software programs.

Where can I find more information about who is behind FUTO?


Lookup Eron Wolf


Thanks!


Oh, cool. I didn't know Rossmann was related to Futo. I know Futo from [1]: 'The Voice Input app for Android that respects your privacy.' and I did not know Futo was more than 'Voice Input'.

As for Grayjay. Yeah, this is exactly what we need: an application which allows us to watch video (offline) without being tied to a platform.

We have a name for that: it is called a web browser. In a web browser, we use standards such as HTML and CSS. The user decides how a website looks, not the website (those are merely suggestions, the user is the one who in the end decides if they want to follow these).

Something like Grayjay is following the spirit of the WWW.

As per your link it also allows downloading videos to watch offline, which almost certainly disabled ads.
