I honestly don't use that much foss on my Android phone, but DVD has to be my favourite. I like sharing memes as videos instead of links in chat apps and it lets me download videos from just about any app or site by just sharing the link to the DVD app. It uses yt-dl in the background, so any site supported by that should work.

I also constantly use Bitwarden, Aegis and Home Assistant along with a couple less often used ones. Those three felt so obvious to me that I didn't feel like picking them as my favourite :)
Newpipe, for watching youtube videos without ads or tracking
Openboard keyboard for the one feature I can never be without again: moving the cursor by swiping left or right on the spacebar, it's a godsend for selecting stuff with my wide fingers
Catima - for saving arbitrary barcodes and stuff that are hard to integrate into other wallets. I keep my local library card in there, and it works wonderfully
Nonocross - fun little game that has zero frills and distractions. Also very responsive on their github to suggestions and improvements
Termux - when I need to get into things from afar, this is how I do it
Box, Box! - Formula 1 news, schedules, standings, etc
Coffee - Sometimes I want to keep the display awake, so this comes in handy
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.
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
F-Droid, Voyager, Eternity, Libretube
I'd recommend Mull instead of Firefox or Fennec (the deblobbed version) since it's hardened.
It's basically a Librewolf analogue for mobile
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
Nextcloud News I like for RSS since it fetches the full text article. Obtainium lkke others mentioned is a must have for me.
Obsidian isn't FOSS. I highly recommend Logseq but keep in mind they require CLA signing for contributions
2FAS, Bitwarden, Firefox are my most used FOSS on Android for me.
Organic Maps, Syncthing and Feeder.
megladon for mastodon
OpenBoard + predictive text binary
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.
