Slice & Dice is probably the best android phone game ever made, and if you buy the itch.io version you get both the PC and Android versions.
I absolutely love this game. I wish they would make a #2 or another great game like this
Folder Sync Pro - if you have a NAS or extra server, you can upload backups from your phone to there for safe offline storage. I use it to hold my photos and Tasker profiles.
SMS Backup and Restore - Likewise, this backs up your SMS and call records, useful if you are needing to preserve records for legal reasons or otherwise. They have an IAP purchase for pro - I think
Solid Explorer File Manager pro - Hands down, this by far for me has been nothing short of awesome. Well worth the $$ for it. They use the Unlock file
(Solid Explorer Classic UnlockSolid Explorer Classic Unlock) for this. Or at least used to - to enable the pro functions.
If you have Android Wear - pretty much any of the watchfaces you desire can be there or even make your own with some of the apps there for it. :)

Niche but very valuable for me is: symfonium which is a very complete subsonic client. Prana Breath is a lean but featureful breathing app with a ton of different exercises from beginners to advanced yoga practitioners
Both apps are android only and are miles ahead of anything iphone can offer which is worth being mentioned imo.
Instead of Titanium Backup (which I paid for long ago and highly recommended back in the day), a more modern and mantained solution that has been rock solid for me is Swift Backup: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.swiftapps.swiftbackup
And for regular folder backups I haven't found a better alternative than Folder Sync Pro: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.tacit.android.foldersync.full (Has a free version if you want to try it)
I paid for the Gallery app because it's easier to navigate than Google Photos.
If you're gonna be boating, Navionics is absolutely worth paying for.
Im in the same boat, Ive got every imaginable app thats useful to me but Ive got about $75 in rewards
Photopills. If you do any kind of outdoor or landscape photography it's a must.

What a disappointment is the BigBag app. Bought it yesterday but I expected a better app (also UI wise). Especially the recipe book part. Maybe the will improve in the future, but I am not going to use it for now.
Really? I only used the recipe book once but it seemed easy to hit the checkboxes and move ingredients over to my grocery list.
Mostly I just use it to sync shopping lists between myself and my partner. For that it has been quite reliable. Yeah I can imagine some UI improvements, but overall I think it's pretty good.
Can you find a better grocery app? I've tried a ton of them and most were horrible. Either they had a hard-to-navigate UI with no dark mode, or they didn't allow syncing with another person, or some major functional problem.
There used to be a grocery app I loved called Cinnamon but the dev stopped maintaining it :(
I use Bring! The shared lists work well, not sure about any other features tbh
- BubbleUPnP
- skvalex's Call Recorder
- KeepTrack Pro
Hey, me too. I just started to use their new SD MAID SE. Purchase of previous SD Maid Pro doesn't count, though, unfortunately.
- Slice & Dice is a fun game here and there
- Poweramp Equalizer is pretty nifty if you use decent headphones or swap listening devices frequently. You can save profiles per device.
