KDE Connect
Allows connecting to other devices with KDE connect and sharing files, controlling media players, sending text messages, controlling the mouse and keyboard (if the device has that), and much more.
I install it by default on every device I have and even setup a computer as a media player in my living room that I control with my phone. Just connect an old laptop or desktop with Wake On Land or with autosleep and autologin and you won't need a firestick or whatever.
My favorite feature is media auto pausing when I get a call and resuming when it's done. I listen to music through my workday and it's nice to not have to scramble to turn it down or pause when a call comes in.
