Apps worth paying:
uTorrent PRO
CCleaner (if pictures consume lots of your storage and would like to compress them with minimum loss)
Any Zombodroid app
Games:
Castlevania: Synphony of the Night
Need for Speed: Most Wanted
Real Drift
Any emulator you would like to use
I don't think I could ever trust CCleaner after the self-signed malware incident.
For me, Steam Deck has entirely replaced Android gaming and then some.
Yeah, feel like that killed it off when it came to seeing it recommended.
Utorrent?? Lol
Libretorrent https://gitlab.com/proninyaroslav/libretorrent is free and open source and isn't anywhere near as shady as uTorrent.
Material Files https://github.com/zhanghai/MaterialFiles is a free and open source file manager that allows decompression, archive viewing and compression of files and folders using 7zip, tar or zip. If you prefer the command line, p7zip CLI can also be installed on Termux, https://github.com/termux/termux-app both free and open source.
I don't edit photos or play many games on android so I don't have any alternatives there but Lemuroid https://github.com/Swordfish90/Lemuroid is a free and open source console emulator with a whole bunch of consoles built in and Dolphin https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin emulates the GameCube and Wii
NO. fuck utorrent.
if you need an android Torrent client get something that's not made by that shady-ass company, like LibreTorent (foss) or flud
also fuck CCleaner too.
