Download These Free Apps and Games Before They Go Paid

We do take the trouble of scouring the Apple App Store and Google Play Store in the hunt for free apps and games for your iPhone or Android smartphone. Do take note that whatever is listed here is free for a limited time only, and there is no way of telling when this list will revert to its paid status.

Without much further ado, here is our list of games and apps for the week. We have checked them out to ensure they are free from scams and privacy concerns. However, do note that this list is different from our Top 5 Apps of the Week selection each week. We did not review each of these apps individually, so you might stumble upon some that contain advertisements and in-app purchases.

Tip: If you come across an interesting app on our list but don't need it now, install it first and delete it afterward. This will cause the app to be saved to your library, allowing you to install it later for free, even after the promotion ends.
