my go tos on a daily basis

Talon (better twitter client)
FB
TuneIn Radio
BBC sport / weather
instagram
Guardian
pocket casts (podcast app)
google play rewards - gives you surveys every now and again and gives you play store credit to spend on games and movies etc.

recommended depending on what phone you have and whether you like to tinker

new launcher (to customise your home screen)
- nova
- action launcher

if you like games recommend going to humblebundle.com. often have bundles of games very cheap (you can just buy the first couple for a quid) and allow you to get some crackers much cheaper than play store. you can download their app from their site to manage the games on your handset
