All of these list are great as we discover new apps each time.

But, I would suggest to write what is the app about.

I use KDE Connect as a media remote and to transfer files between my phone and computers. It has quite a few other functions, like remote mouse control, sms, seems to share clipboards as well.

https://kdeconnect.kde.org/

Not sure about the rest of those, but Obsidian isn’t OS either.

Obtainium is great for updating apps hosted outside the playstore, big upside being you don’t need to bother with FDroid releases

Tey heliboard. I known you posted a long time ago

Anyone uses InnerTune?

If you use Organic Maps you may be interested in https://streetcomplete.app to help fill out the map

THANK YOU for antennapod!!! What an incredibly beautiful app, I’m so impressed!!

• FluffyChat
• Seeker
• Pano Scrobbler
• Mull
• Orbot
• FairEmail
• Librera
• Kanji Dojo
• KeePass2Android
• PipePipe
• LibreTube
• Aegis
• OpenLauncher
• Translate You
• DITMM?
• Wormhole William
• Breezy Weather
• Retro Music
• OsmAnd

• QKSMS, though it’s pretty low maintenance
• EasyNoise
• Simple Gallery
• SCEE, which is way more fun that any proprietary AR spyware IMO!

I’d recommend Mull instead of Firefox or Fennec (the deblobbed version) since it’s hardened.

It’s basically a Librewolf analogue for mobile

Love Aegis and Bitwarden, but here’s another one that’s a must if you’re on stock android:

NetGuard

Blocks network access for apps and processes on your phone, great way to ensure apps aren’t calling home all the time.

Obsidian isn’t FOSS

I’d suggest Feeder for RSS. I haven’t found a perfect feed reader, but Feeder is at least no-nonsense.

My MVP FLOSS apps are

• Kiss launcher
• K-9 (email)
• Fennec (slight improvement over Firefox)
• VLC (media player)
• Antennapod (podcasts)
• Voice (audio books)
• Newpipe (YouTube without the Google snooping)
• Markor (notes)
• Authenticator (two factor authentication)
• DAVx5 (calendar and contacts sync)
  • ICSx5 (adds ICS events to calendar)
• Syncthing (serverless file sync)
• Tusky (Mastodon)

All of those are from F-droid; I’m slowly moving to Obtainium from Aurora store to keep a couple of non-FLOSS apps updated.
