Microrobots. Each robot the size of a grain of salt; disposable (and hence, cheap). They'll be able to: clean your teeth (goodbye toothbrush), cut your hair (you'll have exactly the haircut you want), cut your nails, shave your beard. Clean your face, your ears.
Probably more usages, but all of them related to human hygiene. I just can't imagine a future with: toiler papers, toothbrushes, nail clippers, hair scissors...

This is the one I couldn't remember for my own comment, actually robotics generally, was thinking farms, self driving, android companions... tiny bots is another good call. I think there will be a lot more uses outside of humans, probably first for safety reasons.
