Further to this, an easy way to install other apps that aren't available in f-droid is to download an app called "Yalp Store" from f-droid. That is a simple and nice interface to the "Google Play Store", so you can browse and download anything from there, without needing to log in or identify yourself. There will be some applications there that won't work on Replicant, because they depend on non-free libraries, but some certainly do.
