Free apps for Android & iOS: Get these paid versions for free!
As we come to the end of another work week, here is our second weekly edition of the free apps of the week! As usual, NextPit offers you a selection of good deals for mobile apps and games for iOS and Android that normally costs something but are available for free on a temporary basis on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
How did we compile the information required for this post? For starters, our team will check the two app stores for you via deal sites or via apps like AppSales. from there, we pick out the free offers and list them for you as seen below. This means that we only collect recommendations for apps that normally are priced.
Here is a note for our dear readers: Unlike our other app reviews, there is no quality control on our part in these free lists. Hence, we don't know if the apps are protecting your data, if there are outrageous in-app sales, or if a game is just simply awful. So do bear that in mind when downloading and check it on your own responsibility.
Quick tip: Whenever you stumble upon an interesting app but have no real use for it just yet, why not just install the app? After doing so, just delete it from your device. This 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 justifiably reliable method to take full advantage of a short-lived promotion.
Temporarily free Android apps on the Google Play Store
Android productivity/lifestyle apps that are temporarily free on the Google Play Store
- 150X Duplicate Remover Pro (
$0.49): With but a single click of a button, this app claims to be able to remove all duplicate photos, images, videos, audio files, and documents from your phone. Pretty handy in handling those duplicate images sent over WhatsApp across different channels if you ask me... - Correlate (
$2.99): Touted as a smart life-journal app, it intends to help you understand why are you feeling sick by using a scientific algorithm. I would highly recommend you always rely on a doctor's diagnosis and not self-medicate yourself. - VPN Pro (
$2.99): So you have read about the benefits of having a VPN on your smartphone. Perhaps here is the one time you can try it out, but do not expect too much from it compared to the likes of ExpressVPN. - EVP Phone Spirit Box
($1.99): So you feel the hairs on your neck rise when you are in an abandoned building, but do not see anyone else around. Don't call the Ghostbusters, but use this app to get in touch with the spirit instead... - Super Notes

Android mobile games temporarily free on the Google Play Store
