23 mobile things #22

This time, I am looking at ways to get free apps on the Iphone. From my experience, the app store doesn't really tell you if the free apps are worth it without downloading them first. This leaves me with the options of using google or finding an app that tells you about free apps. I have done both successfully, but like the second option better. There is another option I sometimes use, which is watching Feedly to figure out apps that have gone free for a limited time. This is how I found out about Knots 3D, which I covered in my previous post.

Apps gone free is the app I chose off the list given. Every day, different apps that meet certain standards show up as free downloads. A nice description is given, making it easy to tell if the app is worth it. With 2 clicks, the app is downloaded and ready to go.

I did find at least 2 apps that I kept. One is called Vert and is a unit converter with more options than I can ever use. The other is a break-out style game called Anodia. This seems to be a fun game so far.

Personally, this is a nice way to keep up with free apps, and I have always found something new. They may be apps I would have never considered searching for. Not every app is worth it, but there is usually something worth looking into.
