There's a lot of good recommendations here but I haven't seen anyone recommend Trail Sense yet. I use it to keep track of my steps without worrying about my levels of activity being monitored by anyone else. It also notifies me an hour before sunset since I actually go hiking.

Here are some not mentioned in this thread yet.
- App Manager - App manager on steroids
- Calculator++ - Have used this calculator forever
- DiskUsage - Storage analyzer
- J2ME Loader - Emulates old JAVA games
- Jellyfin - Client for Jelyfin media server
- PCAPdroid - Network sniffer
- UnicodePad - UTF char explorer
Material Files - the best files app I've ever used! Clean, material design and has everything I need. It can even run an FTP server
Obsidian isn't FOSS. I highly recommend Logseq but keep in mind they require CLA signing for contributions
I'd recommend Mull instead of Firefox or Fennec (the deblobbed version) since it's hardened.
It's basically a Librewolf analogue for mobile
Nextcloud News I like for RSS since it fetches the full text article. Obtainium lkke others mentioned is a must have for me.
F-Droid, Voyager, Eternity, Libretube
Obtainium is pretty good
megladon for mastodon
2FAS, Bitwarden, Firefox are my most used FOSS on Android for me.
OpenBoard + predictive text binary
Organic Maps, Syncthing and Feeder.
What's FNG? Fluid navigation gestures? Is that FOSS? Can you share a link to the codebase? Can't find it
Seriously guys, no one saying Nextcloud?
- The main app for photo backup.
- Nextcloud Notes for well, notes you can also use from the desktop.
- NC Passwords for well, passwords
- Phonetrack to record your phone to Nextcloud Maps.
- Deck for the Kanban.
I switched to Immich for photo backup/management. It's better by miles.
I'm very happy with Nextcloud, and not just for photo backups.
Snapd is something I'm waiting to die to be honest, so things that have it as a prerequisit repell me.
Here's a few I enjoy using that I haven't seen mentioned yet:
- Phonograph Plus: elegant music player using Material UI design
- Etar +ICSΒ² : Etar is a nice-looking calendar app that uses Material UI design, and ICSΒ² enables me to sync the Holiday Calendars provided on Thunderbird.net.
- Etar+ DAVxΒ² + NextCloud : enables syncing my local Etar calendar(s) with any NextCloud instance (using CalDAV). DAVxΒ² also allows for syncing my Android contacts to NextCloud (using CardDAV)
- AnySoft Keyboard: extremely customizable, varied keyboard layouts, for those who want all punctuation marks and quote signs built-in.
- Irregular Expressions: alternative keyboard for goofing around with unicode textstyles (π π π ‘π π π π ’, πΊππ π°ππππππ ππππ, οΌ₯ο½ο½ο½ο½ ο½ο½ο½ο½ , etc.)
- Simple Notes : minimalist "note to self" memos.
