Email text notifications when an address receives funds
Kill switch (“If this button is not pressed every X months, send all funds to another address)
Accounting App (export transactions filtered by different criteria (date range, tx size, etc))
“Voting” App: Setting a flag on your node that allows you to vote with your node on protocol changes
Transaction tumbler: ZeroLink and/or Coinjoin implementations: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/hiddenwallet-and-samourai-wallet-join-forces-make-bitcoin-private-zerolink/
Script verification (e.g. https://github.com/kallewoof/btcdeb or http://bitcoin-script-debugger.visvirial.com/ )
Manual UTXO/Coin Selection - Could be some sort of Drag and Drop tool
Password manager - using the crypto utils, HD wallet, etc. to use mnemonic as seed to retrieve, recover, and manage passwords. Idea from trezor: https://doc.satoshilabs.com/trezor-user/passwordmanager.html
Peer management - add and remove peers from your node. Manage a black list of peers
