It's that time of the week when the daily grind begins like clockwork. What better way to do that than by exploring the latest app deals on Android and iOS? In this round, we've curated a collection of premium apps that are currently up for grabs for free on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store, but only for a limited time. So, without further ado, let's dive into the exciting world of app discounts.

These apps go beyond our usual selection in our weekly "Top 5 Apps of the Week" article. Although we won't be providing detailed reviews for each app, it's important to note that some of them might contain in-app purchases and advertisements. But don't worry, we've handpicked the best options for you to enjoy without breaking the bank. So, keep reading to discover which apps are waiting to be downloaded for free right now.


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.

Beware of in-app purchases and ads!

Both free and paid apps can include hidden in-app purchases and ads, especially in children's games. To avoid surprises, follow these tips:

App Permissions: Be cautious!

Some apps collect and share your personal data. Protect your privacy by carefully reviewing app permissions. For instance, why would an alarm clock need access to your camera or contacts? Limit permissions to keep your data secure.

Enjoy exploring free apps for Android or iOS, knowing your data is protected.

With that, we have come to the end of the list. Were there any apps or games not listed here you think are worth sharing? Please share them with us in the comments.
