What Android apps are worth paying for? (lemm.ee)

What non-game paid apps do you use that are worthwhile and still relevant in 2023?

For context, I have a decent amount of Google Play credit thanks to Opinion Rewards and a gift card. I'm not looking to start a book or movie collection there, nor sign up for subscription services. But I'm happy to buy the paid/pro version of useful apps.

I'm excluding games just because that's a whole topic on its own.

Here are some one-time paid apps I've been happy with:

What a disappointment is the BigBag app. Bought it yesterday but I expected a better app (also UI wise). Especially the recipe book part. Maybe the will improve in the future, but I am not going to use it for now.

Really? I only used the recipe book once but it seemed easy to hit the checkboxes and move ingredients over to my grocery list.

Mostly I just use it to sync shopping lists between myself and my partner. For that it has been quite reliable. Yeah I can imagine some UI improvements, but overall I think it's pretty good.

Can you find a better grocery app? I've tried a ton of them and most were horrible. Either they had a hard-to-navigate UI with no dark mode, or they didn't allow syncing with another person, or some major functional problem.

There used to be a grocery app I loved called Cinnamon but the dev stopped maintaining it :(
