I had been an Android user since the very first Nexus One. Over the past years I had used a large variety of Android phones ( from Samsung, Nexus, HTC, LG, Sony, Huawei, etc) but I had yet to find the perfect 10/10 phone which obviously doesn't exist yet !
Over the years I had tried many apps too and I list below my favorite to date. Yours could be a different set from mine but it'd be good to hear from you guys your favorites. These listed apps might not be the best but I am very comfortable using them . Please ask if any category I had left out

There's only one app worth mentioning if special comes to mind. EZ package disabler works without root and enable Gear VR user to experience other VR app without rooting to disable the auto detection of gear vr attachment.
