As the week comes to a close, you too, might want to spend some time chilling in front of your phone and avoid social events to recharge. Extroverts might beg to differ though. In any case, this week’s edition of our free apps of the week is published twice weekly. There is a selection of free apps and games from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store to pick from. This is our list of curated free apps that are now available for a limited time only. We do not know when these deals will end though, so grab them while they are still available!
We do not simply list down these apps without having to go through some quality control. On the contrary, we do our best to ensure these apps are not scams or privacy traps. Note that this article is different from our Top 5 Apps of the Week which is published weekly, as we do not individually review these apps. Hence, some of these apps might feature more ads than normal as well as in-app purchases.
Tip: If you think there is an app you would like to use in the future but do not need it at the moment, you can download and install it first before uninstalling it. Said app will be considered as “purchased” and available in your app library forever.
