just scrolling trough my phone, here's some I like
app opps - lets you change permissions for apps, handy if you want to have multiple things playing audio or use google photos without it scanning your phone.
calcu - it's a calculator!
simple draw - exactly what it says on the tin
es file explorer pro - versatile, but not bloated
moon+ reader pro - a handy reader for all sorts of docs, including search etc
polarr - a photo editing app with features not a lot of apps have. The devs are pushing some dumb filters tho
handy photo - same as polarr
mx player pro - got videos to play?
poweramp - a music player
poweramp equalizer - is what it says on the tin
sd maid pro - for clearing out old files and such
poweraudio plus - used to be the only app with a parametric equalizer. Now poweramp does too
ultrachron - just a nice timer/stopwatch
unified remote - a remote control app, be careful tho, I doubt this thing is secure
web video caster - also downloads videos from plenty of places
and a couple more apps, where the developer has decided to pull the lifetime license and move to a subscription, even after I had bought it
officesuite pro - it's handy, but f them
I will second Moon Reader and Web Video Caster.
So I've used Moon reader pro for several years and love it, but I cannot get reading states to sync between my Samsung phone and Samsung tablet. The book files are named exactly the same on both. I've tried syncing using Google Drive and Dropbox. It treats the books as two separate reading states, though I see the metadata/reading states file edited in Google Drive upon reading for a bit. Any suggestions?
I don't have it installed right now, as I've been trying out a FOSS reader for a while now on my new phone, but there is a troubleshooting section about syncing on their site, and also they recommend this guide made by a user discussing sync troubleshooting.
It's not a feature I've used, so maybe those guides have something you haven't tried. Since you replied to me though, I feel partially responsible for making sure you get helped now. π
Thanks for reminding me! I have the free version of unified remote and have been meaning to upgrade.
Heads up, SD Maid is being rebuilt as SD Maid SE now with more/better features.
Already purchased it. I'm still missing some features, so I currently use both
Dicey Dungeons is pretty great.
Super Hexagon from the same creator is super great/hard.
Minimalist phone Launcher that helps to use addictive apps less. And overall a boring home that demotivates you to use your phone.

Game: crying suns It's a full ftl type game that's on steam as well. Big story. Took me a while to get through it
PhotoPills
Invaluable as a photographer. I think it's closed source though which is a shame.
CamScanner (intuitive and powerful scanner app that processes images exceptionally well and interfaces cleanly with all sorts of other apps) and Hiper Calc Pro (scientific calculator that shows you your input and looks like a classic calculator interface)
There's an open source pdf scanner that works exceptionally well
That's great! It's not super helpful for me, though, since I teach students that often aren't good at troubleshooting technology issues on their own so I need an app that's pretty universal and user-friendly. Plus, the question specifically asked about stuff in the Android play store...
The github has download links for fdroid, apk, obtainium, and play store. Here's the play store link if you want it
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.akylas.documentscanner
I was going to mention camscanner, but itβs been years since I was in the android phone, so I wasnβt sure if itβs even still around.
Tasks.org is a wonderful open-source todo/task app, that has a low-cost monthly subscription to use it's syncing ability. It's worth it to support FOSS wherever we can.
Worth noting that it also has a bunch of free alternatives for sync, some self-hostable, and you were talking about the paid service hosted by the Tasks.org devs.
