A bunch of these are also available in the venerable Simon Tatham's Portable Puzzle Collection: https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/puzzles/

Which also exists on Android as a pretty light app: https://chris.boyle.name/projects/android-puzzles/
And apparently there's an app for iOS too.
The iOS app is my favorite timekiller. It doesn't hide the clock, it starts up really fast (no splash screen), it has no ads, it uses only 3.7MB storage, and it's free.
I also really like the collection of games at https://www.puzzle-nonograms.com – linked is the one I play the most.
I got into these type of puzzles with Picross DS (on the Nintendo DS). I also recommend: https://www.hanjie-star.com/
And for fans of Konami games, this app is fun too: https://www.konami.com/games/us/en/products/pixelpuzzle/
There's an Austrian site with a massive variety of puzzles like these, all playable online for free: https://www.janko.at/Raetsel/Uebersicht.htm
It's mostly in German, but each game page usually has a rules section in English and links to other sites with the same puzzle type.
