Free apps for Android & iOS: Get these paid apps for free!

This is the first of two weekly lists that we normally publish here on NextPit on Tuesdays and Fridays. Since these are limited-time promotions, it's possible that some of the deals are already over or unavailable. Anyway, do check out the guide prepared by our editor Antoine on How to find free apps for Android or iOS without being scammed to get a fist on how we searched for suggestions listed in this guide.

Here's a tip: If you find an interesting app but can't really use it right now? Install the app anyway, then delete it from your device. That way, the app will become part of your app library, and you can install it again for free when you need it. This is a good way not to miss out on a short-lived promo.

Free Android Apps and Games

Free Android apps

• Gallery No Ads 2020 ($0.99): Every smartphone already includes a gallery app, and the developer of this alternative provides options to list images, offers password-protected albums, and more
• Falling Flowers Red - Live Wallpaper ($0.99): Simple and delicate, this animated wallpaper basically shows leaves falling from trees (which don't move)
• Auslan Tutor ($15.68) [ends this Thursday, 30 September]: This app is rather specific as it offers lessons for Australian sign language (Auslan), complete with videos for over 500 signs.

Free games for Android

• Space Shooter Premium ($0.99): A shoot-'em-up game where you are in space and have to survive waves of enemies while gaining upgrades for your ship and weapons to go further in the game

• Infinite Puzzle ($4.49): A minimalist puzzle game in which the goal is to connect the dots while rotating the lines on the playing field. It seems really simple at first before the complexity level cranks up
• League of Stickman 2020 ($0.99): There is no 2021 version just yet, as this game stars yet another stickman who faces dozens of different enemies, where you can unleash combos in stunning visual effects
• Ball Reach ($0.99): In this game, you are required to balance a ball through numerous 3D levels. It is quite fun to play, but might end up testing your patience

• Magnet Balls Pro ($0.99) [ends on Wednesday, 29 September]: In this game, you shoot balls of the same color to remove them from the board. A typical puzzle game with nice 3D graphics
• Isometric Squares ($1.49) [ends on Wednesday, 29 September]: In this puzzle game, you have to form a square from smaller squares. This might look simple in 2D, but if you want to challenge your spatial vision, you can also play it in 3D

Free iOS Apps & Games

Free apps for iOS

• Tube Browser - Adblocker ($4.99): The developer of this app promises to block all ads displayed on YouTube by playing content in a proprietary interface
