Another week has begun, which means it's time to check out the latest app deals for Android and iOS. This week, we've compiled a list of premium apps that are currently available for free for a limited time on Google Play Store and Apple App Store. Read on to see which apps are currently free.
These apps are different from those typically selected for our weekly “Top 5 Apps of the Week” article. We do not review each app individually, but please note that some of the apps may contain in-app purchases and/or advertising.
Tips: If you find an app you want but don't need right now, just download and install it – it will be considered a “purchase” and will be available in your App Library forever, even if you uninstall it from your phone right after.

Beware of in-app purchases and ads!
Both free and paid apps may contain hidden in-app purchases and ads, especially games for kids. To avoid surprises, follow these tips:
App permissions: Be careful!
Some apps collect and share your personal data. Protect your privacy by carefully reviewing app permissions. For example, why does an alarm clock need to access your camera or contacts? Limit permissions to keep your data safe.
Enjoy our free app for Android or iOS knowing your data is protected.
