Temporary free Android And iOS apps this week
Without apps, a phone is useless. If you are not sure what to put on your phone, do not worry—we have a free iOS and Android Apps of the Week column that updates you on a variety of productivity and gaming apps that might be of interest to you every two weeks!
When the developers decide to revert back to their paid status, we have no idea when these games and applications will be made accessible for free. If you find a listed program that is no longer free, please let us know so we can update the appropriate information.
Tip: If you find an app that you want to have but do not need right now, download and install it first. It will stay in your app library forever, even if you remove it from your smartphone right away. This way, the program will be regarded as “purchased.”
