Here's some others I use that folks may want:

Tor browser (Aurora store) -F-droid version coming soon) by torproject.org

FireFox Focus browser

Antenna Pod - podcast app (Fdroid)

VLC media player (Fdroid)

Calyx VPN (free) (Fdroid)

Organic Maps (Fdroid) - new to me, testing it out it seems good, however I prefer Magic Earth in 2D mode still

All-in-one offline maps (Aurora or APK) - excellent map for hunting/hiking/outdoor use

Standard Notes - (Fdroid) excellent note app that syncs with all devices you install it on (free and paid versions)

Privacy Browser (Mojeek) (Fdroid) - UK based search engine with much better results usually than Gurgle

Metro Music player (Fdroid)

Blokada (free and paid versions) (Fdroid) - excellent ad blocker (and VPN with paid) to see connections and block any you wish. (Cannot run this and a VPN at the same time)

FireFox Focus browser

Enjoy and check back periodically, hoping this hepls folks new to these phones get up and running quickly. The apps listed on this page above are generally safe to download and use from a privacy and security standoint. Start with F-Droid, anything not on there grab from Aurora Store and just ensure you revoke any unwanted permissions for any app you use.
