Bluetooth accessories and Android apps remain pretty universal, so you can keep your old apps (and get any new ones that are optimized for Android 4.3), keyboards, speakers, and headphones. Cases are a bit trickier, and that's where you might run into some problems when ordering online. When shopping for a new case or cover, look for one that says it's for the "New Nexus 7" or the "2013 Nexus 7." If you get a case made for the first Nexus 7, it won't fit on your new tablet.
AppsThe Nexus 7 runs stock Android 4.3, which means it can handle nearly any Android app you can throw at it. Because the Google Play Store is a massive library of software for your tablet, it's hard to pick which apps are optimized for tablets, which apps were recently updated, and which apps are actually good. Our list of The Best Android Apps can help you narrow down your choices, even if there are still a lot from which to pick. Be sure to update all of your Google-specific features and apps (like Google Drive, Google Now, and Google Keep) to make sure all of your personal information and media is available on your tablet instantly.
Other AccessoriesWith all of the obvious accessories out of the way, there are two more you can pick up that can add a lot of functionailty to your Nexus 7. The Google Chromecast$35.00 at Amazon lets you stream online media from your Nexus 7 to your HDTV, and while it's currently limited in what it supports, its $35 price tag is just right for adding some useful functionality to your tablet. Finally, the Logitech K810 Bluetooth Illuminated Keyboard£126.73 at Amazon lets you use your tablet like a mini-notebook.
