We have rounded up these free apps and listed them for you, unlike our list of the five best apps of the week, we will not install all the apps listed below. However, do proceed with some degree of caution because some of these might require microtransactions to help you go further in the game. What’s your highlight of the week? Maybe UT Promoter Pro, an app for inspiring influencers looking into upping their subscriber base? Or maybe the game Despotism 3k, where you yourself are an almighty AI to fight against humanity?

Tip: Do you want to keep the free app for the future—but don’t need it right now? Just download and install it once, and uninstall it if you need the space. This way, it will still be added to and kept in your list of purchased apps, and you can download it again in the future for free once you need it.
