Here are a few of my faves:
- Breezy Weather - Nice weather app.
- Diatronome - Tuner, metronome, and synth
- NewPipe / NeuTube - I haven’t found my fave tube app.
- Suntimes - Information and widgets about the sun and moon.
I’m just looking for some recommendations. It’s difficult browsing through apps with F-Droid. Thanks!

Thanks for all the recommendations!
I’ve been trying them out. Here are a few that I’ve started using:
- Trailsense - I had this before but people reminded me how it’s awesome. It has a compass so I don’t really need the Compass app (but I have it anyway because it’s small and nice).
- Survival Manual - Fun to browse.
- LibreFind - This app motivated me to replace several proprietary apps with open source.
- Material Files - My fave of the file apps.
- Clock - My fave of the clock apps.
- Octal Sun Time - I found this while looking at the clocks. It’s a base 8 solar clock. I’m a huge fan of sun based time. This goes well with Suntimes app.
- AntennaPod - I didn’t realize that I needed exactly this app for podcasts.
- Games - I added a few games but I haven’t played yet: Beat, BlockDrop, Breakout71, Drum On!, DuckRun, Freebloks, GameMaster Dice, Lato, Pixel Wheels, Unciv
- OSMand - I’ve had this but forgot to mention it. Top tier mapping.
- StreetComplete / Vespucci - My fave apps for editing OSM. StreetComplete asks questions about missing data. Vespucci is a more standard editor.
- LavSeeker - This is a nice little app for finding toilets but I can accomplish same in OSMand with custom POIs.
- Neutube / Tubular - I’ve been using Tubular for anon youtube and Neutube for when I need to login. Neutube seems to crash very often so I mostly use Tubular for playing music.
- Waistline / Open Food Facts - I’m very stoked on Waistline since MyFitnessPal is extremely enshittified. This has led to Open Food Facts where I’ve started uploading food facts.
- OpenTracks - I haven’t used this yet because I have a Strava account. But I want to try it out. It solves the problem of recording split/overlapping exercises (eg. bike to run to bike) which Strava doesn’t handle.
- OpenTune - Great app for music playlists.
- ReFra Gallery - My fave of the gallery apps.
- Weather Radar - Nice app focusing on maps, radars, etc.
- Network Scanner - Useful for quick LAN info.
