Finding deleted apps and deleted call logs and deleted messages

[AC Question]

How do I see what apps use to be on my phone? And is there an app to retrieve old text messages and call logs

You have little chance I'm afraid

Deleted apps are gone. So are deleted call logs. Deleted messages may be on a database file, marked as deleted, but not yet written over - but you'll have to root your phone and you'll have to be pretty good at SQL. (So probably, for all practical purposes, they're gone too.)

also depends on how many devices were on your Google account.
You can go to the Play Store app - My Apps and have a list of all apps ever downloaded on that account, or maybe just that device. Not sure atm

Yes, I did that once for Microsoft Store apps on one of my Lumias, and it's surprising how many apps you can forget that you once used. They're all listed there.
