Did to test it with some 4k movies or games with a refresh rate above 60hz?
With lower res movies, games, photos and static UI, you can't spot it anyway.
There’s like two 4k movies that have a refresh rate above 24FPS lawl
I turned mine from 120hz (default) to 60hz to save battery. Probably the only reason I noticed is because I knew it was 120hz. The battery hit wasn't worth the subtle difference.

I find it notice it the most on phones, like a huge difference for me. Not as much on PC monitors though.
My phone supports 60Hz and 120Hz (nothing in between) and the difference is definitly recognizable.
Scroll up and down real fast.
What kind of apps? I don't think you'd really see much change with simple 2D interfaces. But video or things rendered in 3D real time will most definitely be noticable.
On a 2D interface, the most noticable thing would be scrolling. Scrolling is much smoother with a higher refresh rate. Just scroll through these comments switching between 60 and 120. Guarantee you'd notice.

If you are in a 60 Hz electrical area (i.e. the Americas, mostly), and the power is rock-steady, and you have cheap fluorescent lighting -- then anything other than 60 Hz refresh rates might improve your screen, but much more so on old CRTs than on modern LCDs and OLEDs.
These days, like most smartphone 'features', it is mostly but not entirely about a checkmark to induce you to feel that you are missing out on something.
