Here’s to the start of a brand new week. We have compiled a list of paid apps that are available for free for a limited time only on both Android and iOS platforms. Do continue reading to see what are the best available free app deals on the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store.
It’s important to note that the apps featured in this collection are not the same as our weekly “Top 5 Apps of the Week” recommendations. We haven’t reviewed every app individually, so you might find some of these listed apps feature in-app purchases and advertisements.
Tip: If you come across an app that you’d like to have but don’t need right now, download and install it first. It would be considered as “bought” and it will be available in your app library forever—even if you uninstall it from your smartphone right after.

Before you download one of the apps mentioned, we recommend that you check the details of the app in the Play Store or App Store. This is important because some of these free apps may have their own special features or disadvantages.
In-app purchases and advertising: Don’t be surprised!
Be careful with both free and paid apps, as they can hide in-app purchases and advertising. This is particularly significant when downloading games for children. To avoid unexpected problems, please follow the advice below:
App permissions: Read the fine print!
Numerous applications can gather and disseminate your personal information. To effectively protect your privacy, it’s crucial to carefully evaluate the permissions that each application seeks. For instance, what reason could an alarm clock app have for needing access to your camera or contact list? By restricting the permissions you allow, you can significantly bolster the security of your data.
Start your adventure by discovering a diverse range of free applications on both Android and iOS, all the while knowing that your personal information is secure.
