DISCLAIMERS :
Adding custom repo might not be as secure as the official one so I'm not responsable if you encounter any problems with them ! I encourage you to do your own research about it !
Also while open source is great for privacy and security it is not perfect. So keep that in mind before downloading any apps.
Most apps that I've listed are privacy friendly but some might be not be perfectly private and secure. I again encourage you to do your own research about them.
I am not a privacy and security expert. I'm also don't consider myself as a developper so I do not have any technical knowledge and so I didn't look into any source code of any apps in this list !
English is not my mother tongue ^^'

The higher the level - the lower the level of comfort and stability, but higher the level of freedom and ethical, respectful treatment of you.
Don't choose the highest level everywhere at once (you can go crazy that way), choose what you need to accomplish your tasks and move slowly to the next level (if you understand what you really need it)

Comments and Reviews
Bromite is a nice privacy enhancement browser for android. And by the way it is so fast like Chromium (open source variant of Chrome).
Used to be good, it's an abandonware at this point. I'd suggest checking its fork, Chromite.
One of the best privacy-focused and open-source, chromium based android browser.
AlternativeTo really should separate Web Browsers in terms of at least having a separate Android section, in my opinion. There are simply too many browsers out there and for Android this would basically be in the top 10. It's open source, works perfectly. If you're looking for something similar to ungoogled-chrome but for your phone, this is it.
Hands down a great chromium android browser wish it was ios
best ad blocking features compared to others
Ideal browser for Android smartphones. The only regret is that if you want to add an ad/tracking blocker filter, you have to go to the trouble of generating it in a special file format. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to make good use of this conversion program.
