Hey guys, I’m planning to have a trip to Japan on the 19th.
Are there any apps that you would recommend installing?
As for now, I’m looking for: currency converter, two clocks widget app (Japan+home), weather app, and any other suggestions. TY.
I’m very fond of breezy weather which is on f-droid.
Seconded, breezy weather is amazing. I’ve installed it from source with obtainium.

Green Pass PDF Wallet! This app is super nice for storing/viewing boarding passes and other important documents while travelling. Has nice features such as automatically turning up the display brightness when viewing a file, so that the QR/Barcodes are more easily scannable.
If the ticket/pass/document is delivered in Apple’s .pkpass format instead of PDF, PassAndroid supports that, while supporting PDF too. While QR, PDF417 and AZTEC barcodes are supported, it seems that your suggestion supports many more than this.

I usually put all the relevant travel data in my Joplin notebook. If the tickets are availible as .passkey files I manage them with PassAndroid. Transportr for public transportation. Wireguard if you need to access your home network via VPN.
Thanks I just tried PassAndroid, pretty slick! I was using KDE Itinerary (way more features and always improving, but not too polished yet) to manage tickets before, now I have an alternative.
Regarding wireguard I always used WG Tunnel from f-droid, I’m looking at the official Wireguard app screenshots and it seems to have the same functionality (easy config import via QR scan, notification shade button), maybe it looks prettier. Not on f-droid, that’s why I didn’t come across it before.
Nothing wrong with WG Tunnel. Btw Wireguard is on the IzzyOnDroid Repo.
