iOS and Android apps that are free for now

Are you looking for free apps that would otherwise cost you a pretty penny? If you answered in the affirmative, then you've come to the right place. NextPit has just picked out a slew of such applications in the Google Play Store and Apple's App Store, so hopefully, there is something that you find yourself interested in this week. 

Each week, Ben goes hunting not for wild game, but for apps that would normally come with a sticker price tag but are currently made available for free. Hence, this article does not cover apps that are perpetually free, but limited-time discounts for you to give it a go. It is something like a surprise box of chocolates, you'll never know what you're going to get inside, but it will definitely be something that appeals to your sweet tooth. This week, I am relieving Ben of that task and hope to present some gems. 

I also gather information about such deals via the MyDealz community and the Android app known as "AppsFree". At the same time, we always look forward to whatever tips that you have which you can share with us in these NextPit forum threads:

One more tip before we start: If you do not need to use a particular app at the moment but think that it is interesting enough for the future, you can always download and install it first, followed by uninstalling it after that. This allows your app account to "register" that you have already "purchased" the app, so any future installations of the app will be considered as "free" even though it might cost something down the road.

Free apps and mobile games for iPhone and iPad

These mobile games for iOS are currently free

• Peppa Pig: Polly Parrot (€3.49): This game is not up my alley, but your kids will surely love it - and you too will love the fact that costs you nothing instead of the regular €3.79 price tag
• Maze - Path of light (€3.49): If you like maze games, you will be happy with Maze. It is a very chill title, at least for those who are not driven nuts by mazes. It carries an impressive rating of 4.8-stars
• Fiete Hide and Seek (€1.99): This iPad-optimized hidden object game targets very young users aged three and above

Unfortunately, you can't really keep track of the app prices on iOS, so whatever we have reported as free for the moment might very well be chargeable in the near future. The early bird gets the worm! If there is a price difference by the time you read this, don't get mad at me. Instead, leave a comment on the title that is no longer available for free and I'll remove it from the article.
