Are there any SPV wallet which still use bloom filter nowadays?
Absolutely! The only non-centralised alternative is the very bandwidth-costly BIP157 (aka neutrino) used by Lightning Lab's mobile wallet and Wasabi.
The most used one is surely "Android Bitcoin Wallet".

I always forget neutrino (BIP 157) are improvement of Bloom filter (BIP 37) and thought those two are 2 separate/totally different SPV technology.

One last question, when we're talking about NODE_BLOOM service, are we talking only services for SPV client which use BIP 37 or including SPV client which use BIP 157 (and BIP 158 as well)?
