Try a few, or a slew, of the following apps to explore your phone’s unlimited potential.Ĭhoosing a favorite weather app often boils down to how you like your information presented. The Vivino wine-rating app, for example, is also an online wine store. However, some free apps do encourage shopping along with the services you get gratis. Though you can make purchases for upgrades in free apps, we shied away from apps strictly focused on shopping or e-commerce. You can take some precautionary measures, such as keeping your contact list private and downloading apps only from companies you trust. App owners use this data to target ads to you, and they might sell these details to other companies. Privacy is always important when downloading anything to your device because you’ll be revealing information about yourself and your online behavior. Some users might find the notices distracting, while others might find the offers attractive - such as those who want help to advance more quickly to the next level of a game. You may receive persistent notices to upgrade to a paid tier that provides extra or more advanced features, or that lets you enjoy a more challenging game. You may have to click past frequent and intrusive advertising to get to the basic features. It’s important to remember that free apps do have some drawbacks. We did not reject apps that included options to purchase more content when you’re in the app - called a “freemium” app - but we made sure that enough valuable material was available before you might be asked to pay for additional features.
And we’ve focused on apps that you might not know about rather than popular ones that you may already have on your phone.Ī word about free: We picked worthy apps where you don’t have to spend a penny to take advantage of their basic features. The apps must be offered on both the iPhone and Android operating systems. We chose apps based on a combination of the following: ones that we’ve used ourselves, that reviewers or app stores rated highly, and that a variety of experts recommended.
To help you discover these free apps, AARP selected 50 that can help save you money, entertain you, safeguard your health, reach your fitness goals, learn more about the world around you or make daily activities more efficient.
