Any cloud backup option available?

Otherwise how to keep in sync when moving to new phone

I use Mostly FOSS apps, I'll name few that I think are commonly useful for others.

Droid-ify - Popular Fdroid Client
Fairmail - Advanced Mail Client
Bitwarden - Password Manager , using .eu domain
Splitcat - Splitting and Merging large files 4gb+ while copying/moving
Fetchit - Download media from facebook, Insta, twitter , very straightforward app
Sharing - Share files via browser - both devices need to be on same network
GCam photos preview - view images shot on custom gcam without gphotos app installed on phone, helpful while using Degoogled ROMs
Untracker - Remove Trackers from Links before sharing
Amaze File Utilities - dozens of features , check by yourself.
Image toolbox - edit, crop , compress images
Localsend - Share Files on same network, Crossplatform . I use it to send files to my Android TV
FFShare - My Favourite, Compress images /Videos on sharing menuwith single tap
Aurora Store - Alternative Store to download Playstore apps
MuPDF Viewer - Basic and Simple PDF viewer, very snappy
Scrambled Exgif - remove exgif and metadata of image on sharing menu.
Libretorrent - Torrent Client I regularly use.
Antennapod - Open-source podcast player
Share via HTTP - can't open but , share files to others devices directly from sharemenu


Excluded some apps that already someone listed on thread

I've recently begun using futo tools - from https://www.futo.org/

One thing I missed with my de-googled phone was voice input. Futo voice is offline, and works really well. I've also begun using Futo keyboard, and it is very very good.

Privacy browser has some nice features:

Tempting but says it's in alpha stage so not too stable?

You Guys can check out KDE Project FOSS apps. Very Small catalogue of utility Apps but good alternative to install in Degoogled OS.

I've been using it for quite some time now. Haven't had any major issues yet(?).

Only issue I had was in WhatsApp, the keyboard wouldn't open sometimes. Fixing it was easy, just go back and tap on the text bar again.
