Get These iOS and Android Apps for Free this Week!
As the new week unfolds, we’re excited to bring you another installment of nextpit’s curated collection of apps that are typically paid but are currently available for free—for a limited time only! We’ve scoured both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store to find these fantastic deals on apps and games that you can download immediately on your iPhone, iPad, or Android device.
Unlike our weekly "Top 5 Apps of the Week," this selection takes a different approach. We haven’t tested each app; instead, our picks are based solely on their temporary free status. This means they could revert to their paid versions at any moment, so it's wise to explore them as soon as possible. Just be mindful of any disclaimers regarding ads, in-app purchases, and other payment options that may be present.
Our tip: If you're interested in an app, install it - even if you don't need it right away. This will mark it as "purchased" and it will remain in your app library. This means you can delete the app you don't currently need from your phone - and put it back on again when you need it!
