GrapheneOS Starterpack
A list of apps I use on GrapheneOS, but most also make sense on other operating systems.
Install "F-Droid Basic" and Obtainium, add a few repos to F-Droid by searching for "F-Droid known repositories"
Privacy-friendly apps I've used and liked
This list covers many privacy-friendly apps I really enjoy. My setup is primarily Apple-based, but I've used Linux and Android in the past and tried to add things that work with them as well. For every Apple app listed here, I've also listed alternatives where possible and I expect you to have activated full E2EE on your Apple ID. Apps are listed in a somewhat organized way, usually from most simple/feature rich to most private.

Comments and Reviews
The graphs could indeed use some work, but it pairs just fine with the Mi Band 3 & is available on F-Droid. Also successfully updated my Mi Band 3's firmware with Gadgetbridge, but your mileage may vary.
I liked the statistics charts; they look detailed.
Giving it 4 stars because it did the only thing I wanted it to do, which was sync a Garmin watch to strictly update the time. The app requests an insane amount of permissions, but I can't complain. Uninstalled right after, but very pleased it works.
I believe in Open-Source, but it ask me too many permissions. I understand that most of them are (not)used by different smart devices. But I'm tired of "do not disturb" and "notifications" permissions requiests. I don't want to give them, I just need to correct time on somebody's watches sometimes. But very often I see "All these permissions are required for correct work." and "I want to get access for GPS, phone, calls, sending messages, calendar, contacts, storage". Why so persistently? Thanks to EMUI I can "Disallow and don't ask again" for most of them. But access for "Notifications" and "Do not disturb" is requested on each app startup...
Love it. grapics could be a tad better but it works super with Mi Band 2. Withaout any account.
