Free Apps for iOS & Android: 21 Free Downloads for 2021
The new year has just dawned and I am sure it feels very 'young' and 'unfamiliar.' I am sure some of you have already written "20202021" on a document or a piece of paper since you know, you had gotten used to writing 2020 everywhere. Anyway, in this latest edition of our 'free apps of the week' series, we start the new year with 21 free apps for iOS and Android.
What makes this list a bit special is the fact that the apps listed here were all paid at some point and are currently available for free. This effectively means I am actually helping you save some money. I also made sure that the collection below is a good mix between Android and iOS apps and mobile games.
Do you know any other apps that NextPit readers should definitely know about? Yes? Write me your app tip in the comments section below and I will add the app to this very list.
Another tip: Do you find an app interesting, but can't use it yet? Then download the app briefly and delete it afterwards. With Google Play, this effectively means you have purchased the app and it should be usable if you need it later.
