There are a few noteworthy ones that have significantly enhanced my digital experience. Let me share them with you:

Musicolet: It's a fantastic music player with a user-friendly interface. The best part is, it doesn't bombard you with pesky ads like the default music player does.
Cube Acr: If you ever need to record calls, this app is a game-changer. It's the best free call recorder I've tried so far.
Macrodroid: This app lets you automate almost anything you can think of. Personally, I love how it allows me to easily turn on the WiFi hotspot with just a few taps. I couldn't find any other app on the Play Store that offered this feature without requiring root access.
Auto redial: You know those moments when you keep calling a restaurant repeatedly until they finally answer? This app saves you from that frustration. It automatically redials the number for you, making your life much easier.
Dynamic rotation: Auto-rotate can be a bit annoying, right? But sometimes, you do want your screen to rotate. That's where Dynamic Rotation comes in. It prompts you to rotate the app whenever you rotate your screen, giving you more control.
Folder sync: It's surprising that popular cloud apps like Mega don't offer a way to sync folders. Fortunately, Folder Sync fills that gap. You can keep selected folders always in sync without any hassle.
Volume booster: We all come across situations where the audio is too low. This app comes to the rescue by boosting the volume, allowing you to hear even the faintest sounds clearly.
Always on AMOLED by Tomer Rosenfeld: Recently, I dropped my phone in water, and since then, the screen has been acting up, moving randomly. However, I noticed that if I use this app for a while, it stabilizes the screen. It's been a lifesaver for me.

These hidden gems have definitely made a significant difference for me. It's fascinating to think about the missed opportunities had I known about them earlier. But hey, now that we know, we can make the most out of these fantastic apps, feel free to add your list below as well ❤️

Plus, there are some really good F-Droid apps too, like Droid-ify (F-Droid client with smoother UI) and Obtainium (update apps automatically from a GitHub link).
