Recommended Apps to download?

[Bryj91]

Hey guys,
I thought id start a thread for getting the best apps on your device! So, What Apps would you recommend to download on the nexus 5x?

Edit:

I'll add to the list as well. These are the main Apps I install on all of my devices. The $50 store credit is awesome for upgrading Apps!! The free versions of each app (that's paid) is fine as well.

Nova Launcher Prime
Smoke and Glass icon pack
Battery percent enabler
Microsoft office Apps
OneDrive
Twilight Pro
Weather Live
AVG antivirus Pro
BBC News
BienSports
Footy Light
Runtastic Pro
MyNetDiary (calorie counter) Pro
Basis Peak (if you have the fitness band)

My favorite apps....hmmmm...aside from the Google stable of apps (Gmail, Keep, Maps, Google+, Wallet/Android Pay, etc) I always put these on every device

1. 1Password
2. Accuweather
3. Calengoo for calendaring with Google Calendar
4. Expensify for expense tracking
5. Feedly for news
6. Textra for SMS/MMS

My can't live withouts:

--Textra
--Nova Launcher (buy the Prime version to get the gestures and extra features)
--Feedly
--Pocket Casts
--Pocket
--Amazon Kindle
--MLB At Bat
--Falcon Pro 3 (Twitter client--free to try in demo but costs $3.99 to add your account--good use of your Play credit)
--SwiftKey
--Runtastic Pro
--Inbox for Gmail (I was an early convert and now I can't deal with the cluttered Gmail interface)

I don't really like weather apps anymore--mostly because Google Now does a perfectly serviceable job and I use my local TV station's weather app to get radar/alerts--but if I do use one, it's Weather Timeline. Great design, no battery drain, and only $0.99.

Great choices you guys! Gonna have to look into some of these apps.

Netflix (mainly for casting)
TuneIn Radio Pro
Fantasy Premier League
Stick Cricket 2
Canabalt
Footmob Pro
Sky+
Sky Sports News
EBay
Banking apps
O2 mobile app

I currently don't have much on my N5x and need to go through my apps to see what I'm missing.

I tend to leave more media stuff (like movie watching) to my tablet such as:

Sky Go
Netflix (for watching on the tab, not casting)
VLC player
BBC iPlayer, 4OD, ITV Player, TV Catch up etc
Flixster (for Ultraviolet)
Flipboard
Larger games
Nova Prime (to reduce Touchwiz)
...

As a note, I always try to get paid apps if I can in order to avoid adds. I try to avoid freemium apps unless it's one payment to remove ads. I'd be interested to know other people's thoughts on this?

Dashclock widget
MX Player
Mega
Slacker
Spotify
Stitcher
ES File Explorer
DuckDuckGo
Zedge

Transferred over my apps from my previous phone, and realized something.

Looks like the the Wells Fargo mobile ap is currently "not compatible"

Forgot about LightFlow although not updated for 6.0 last I checked.
A must have for Nexus owners which will make better use of the RGB notification light.

Edit: seems there is a problem with light control and ambient display - hope this gets resolved

Does anyone have a recommendation for a camera app?

Manual Camera and Camera L have been recommended elsewhere on the forums, but I haven't used them.

CamScanner
Network IP Scanner
Speedtest by Ookla
WiFi Manager

Does anyone find it odd that Redbox doesn't support the 5x?

Solid Explorer for a really really.....solid.... file explorer with great cloud/network integration.
MacroDroid for an easier to learn and almost but not quite as powerful automation app - alternative to Tasker.
Smart Launcher Pro 3 - simply a great launcher particularly for the minimalist who likes gesture launched navigation.
WallPaper Changer - This is a brilliantly simply wallpaper rotation app with good integration with my automation app.
Snap (+ Car Widget) - basically allows me to access a bespoke driving launcher home screen with a gesture.
Aida64 - I like geeky numbers.
FolderSync - Really good cloud sync app - again integrates nicely with my automation app.
Team Viewer so I can mess with my other half by taking over the home laptop from work.....
Weather Timeline - best weather app by a square mile
SoundCloud - great place for fresh tunerage.
Plex - I just love Plex - use it mainly for casting to the big screen but it's nice to have access at will when I'm out and about to my own cloud video library
DSub - Same for music - I've got about 50GBs of my own music which sits on a SubSonic Server. DSub is the client.
