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:

Tasker is my most useful app, use it every day, can't live without it at this point

What do you do with Tasker? It sounds like an amazing solution to problems I don't have.

Depends on what you use your phone for. I have mine:

  1. switch wallpapers every 12 hrs
  2. request music on Rockbot (at work)
  3. download anime automatically with XDCC
  4. custom Quick Setting tiles for mono and fast charging
  5. Custom setting for Eye Comfort Shield to run from sunrise to sunset
  6. keeping track of my car when I park
  7. disabling ADB in my bank app so i can use FP scanner
  8. a flashlight slider to control the intensity
  9. custom double tap power button action
  10. I sometimes use ADB Wifi in order to run ADB commands locally

If you ever feel like you need something automated, Tasker is the way to go
