Apps Gone Free & Daily Tips Reviews

Typically I checked AppsGoneFreeDailyTips everyday to find the odd great price/value app. Unfortunately the selection is not always so great. I started checking AppsGoneFreeDailyTips daily after I had bumped an app that I just narrowly missed on apps gone free (bumping is recommending an app to go free), and after around seven months no sign of it. No discredit to the developers as I don’t know how they work these deals out.
Regardless I love AppsGoneFreeDailyTips and it gives me something to look forward to every day! Sometimes it has great deals on apps or in app purchases that are free, and I even remember a valued subscription for a language app of about $50! It didn’t turn out to be a great fit for me but I am in awe of the great deals you can find on AppsGoneFreeDailyTips. The only other thing I feel worth mentioning is that it seems laggy. I like to check AppsGoneFreeDailyTips early in the morning, and sometimes in the middle of a day it doesn’t show the apps for that day. For example, today is Sunday and it is still showing the apps for Friday. Usually this glitch resolved itself after 2 days at most, but sometimes by then when I check for the previous missed days, their time free has already expired.
I would still definitely recommend AppsGoneFreeDailyTips to anyone who doesn’t like to pay for apps! You don’t see a lot of great and easy platforms like this anywhere else. Definitely one of my favorite apps!

The best app ever! It never fails. It gives the chance to try and get exposed to different apps! You can find the best and favorite of what you use your iPhone or IPad for without spending money then find out you don’t use or enjoy it. Then it shows you similar apps and apps by the same creator whose apps you enjoy! It exposes you to all areas and also unless an app from previous days has expired you can still get if. I love it and use it so much except for my calendar and medicine reminder, I use it the most. I love , love it! Also it is the only app that if it makes changes it asks how you like it and gives you the option to the format you liked better. OH ......I have had since it’s creation and this is the first time it has asked me rate it! This one does not ask you to rate before you try it or get asked to rate it about 5 or 6 times during one usage! Thank you for AppsGoneFreeDailyTips!

I LOVE AppsGoneFreeDailyTips and use it daily to see what new apps are free. I have found quite a few useful apps this way for myself, and my students. The interface is simple and straightforward, no crazy ads or redirects- just access to free apps. It will notify you if you want each day, which I do use. You can also view other apps from previous days and weeks by simply scrolling down to view- it will tell you when an app deal has expired, and I have found that to be accurate. I like that it also includes in-app purchase deals that go free, such as “remove ads for free today” so you can access content, or receive a feature that normally has a fee. Thanks for the update so it will continue working with the latest iOS.

Opens to a white screen with no apps for the last 10 days.

Yep. It's 11am and one of today's free apps has already expired. That's less than 2 hours of being free. Although there are a lot of junk apps and way too many games I would never use I like the idea of AppsGoneFreeDailyTips . But there are 3 problems: 1. Often the free apps are the "lite" versions requiring an in-app purchase for the full version. This should be disclosed up front in App Advice before being sent to AppsGoneFreeDailyTips store. 2. The time zones are not considered. I live in CA and when it is still "today" here many of the apps that are free "for that day" are no longer free. As I mentioned today an app expired in less than 2 hours. There should be a specific time zone mentioned. I.E. This price is good until Midnight or 1pm. Pacific time, etc. 3. Sometimes the "real" price of AppsGoneFreeDailyTips is inflated to make it look more like a deal. When removed from App Advice it gets lowered to its actual price.

I don't appreciate them writing a review for me lol but I guess I would have said this anyway. I do use AppsGoneFreeDailyTips every day and I have downloaded apps that are worth a lot of money now to me... Once you download them you have them forever w your Apple ID so it's great even if I don't need it right now I download it because I might need it in the future and that has happened a few times,, this what they wanted me to say lol "Seriously don't hesitate go ahead and download this, you can't go wrong. NEVER any technical issues and you have nothing to lose by trying all these usually paid apps for FREE! I have so many beautiful games I would have never found thanks to AppsGoneFree"

Yes, there are in fact other locations where we can go for tons of Apps for the iPhone, iPad, WatchOS, even TV OS and I’m not sure, maybe even CarPlay. The beauty here that I like, though, as I THINK I understand it, is that The business model here allows this group to make revenue off of advertisers and not how many apps they sell, no matter how crappy they are. I say that with complete 100% respect for my beloved Apple. But I think this is a outstanding way to do Apps, with researched and written recommendations and reviews. The model also seems to prevent them from setting out to set records on how many apps they can fill the store with, instead focusing on only the better and best of each type of App.

I enjoyed the old format of AppsGoneFreeDailyTips much better, but I appreciate the developers giving the option to toggle the new format to "off" so it looks close to the original version in terms of layout. That being said, the new pastel color scheme stays and is not enjoyable to look as like the original version color scheme was. I also find the "it's for you if" and "you can pass if" sections are very unhelpful and I don't find that it offers real advice on who it's for. A lot of times I feel the reasonings here don't make a lot of sense and simply grasp at straws. I feel AppsGoneFreeDailyTips would have a better feel without this section.
I give AppsGoneFreeDailyTips three stars for the ease of use, good and new free apps daily, and giving the option to toggle back to the original layout at least.
Thanks for listening to my feedback!

I'm not sure about the new app/format yet, so far I haven't been able to download anything - 1 app appears to no longer be free (even though it's the same day and doesn't say "EXPIRED")and another isn't available in the US. Shrug.

I appreciate the enthusiasm for the new format on the devs end. Will stick with it and find out how it all plays out. It's the least I could do - I've been collecting apps from Appsgonefree for many many years and I'm grateful for the effort and consistency the devs have displayed and provided. Yeah, some apps reappear every now and then and other times the apps are less than premium...but it's still fun to check everyday and try Apps that I wouldn't know of otherwise or try because it was too "risky" to purchase. I love finding apps that i'm pleasantly surprised by - and it happens just often enough that Appsgonefree was the ONLY notification i've never turned off.

Thanks again devs - i hope we can maintain our relationship and maybe even improve it. I don't write many reviews but you can count on the fact that i praise and make sure everyone i know with an iPhone dls your app.

It really is like being a kid at xmas for 5-30 mins a day - who DOESN'T want THAT?!

I used to have the original app (apps gone free) and it was amazing then although pretty poorly designed and simple. But that was okay because all I wanted to know was what the best apps were each day for free.

It's so cool because even if I don't want AppsGoneFreeDailyTips right now, i can install it while it's free for the day, then uninstall it and I'll forever be able to install that app for free! The new design is beautiful and easy to use with just enough added on. Not too much, just enough. Loving the advice section before the list of apps everyday.

I never leave reviews on apps but AppsGoneFreeDailyTips is so awesome and so useful everyday that I just had to leave this review. Thanks for creating this application!

I’ve had AppAdvice for awhile now and the one thing I dislike about most apps is the fact as soon as you down load it you get a pop up asking to rate their app. They are just wanting you to rate it before you even get to use it and that’s the whole point they don’t want you to use it first because they already know AppsGoneFreeDailyTips isn’t what they say it is but with AppAdvice you get what they say you’ll l get it’s an awesome app and I have gotten apps off it that are really great apps I would and have shared and also recommended AppAdvice to all my friends and a thank you to the developers for making such a great app

I used the original version for a few years and downloaded some interesting and useful apps and a few real bargains. But nowadays it seems like 80% of the listed apps are games, which I have no interest in. I'm interested mostly in iOS utilities, productivity enhancers, self-improvement, and fitness apps. It seems to me they used to fairly regularly make up around 40% of the listed apps and now they make up about 5-10%.

Nowadays I feel like why should I bother to look at AppsGoneFreeDailyTips anymore, when the vast majority of offerings are now games? Perhaps this has to do with fewer developers offering their apps free, even for a limited time. Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I think the number of serious apps available from AppsAdvice/AppsGoneFree has declined.

Over the many years I’ve scored countless apps. Apps I would have happily paid for. The downfall of the AppStore is buying apps that are junk. Avoid that with AppsGoneFreeDailyTips.
It’s great to be apart of this program. Apps want to push their way to the top of reviews and the way to do that is get apps out there quickly. Making an app free for a time is a win win for the developers and all those in the know with AppsGoneFreeDailyTips. I’ll check AppsGoneFreeDailyTips weekly and give an app that looks like it has potential. I can’t say you’ll find a keeper every week but occasionally you’ll score big.

This is an excellent source to find totally FREE, no BS, apps and games. And if AppsGoneFreeDailyTips is already free, then read the description for instructions because it will tell you how to UNLOCK SPECIAL FEATURES or get something you would normally have to pay for (In-App Purchases) for nothing! So yes, the apps are in fact 100% FREE OF ANY CHARGE! And when you find an app or game you enjoy and think others might enjoy it as well, BE SURE TO SHARE!!! I have found myself addicted to so many games I found on AppAdvice and others will ask what I’m playing only to discover it costs $2.99, $4.99, or $7.99 when they look in AppsGoneFreeDailyTips Store. But I got it for FREE through AppAdvice!!!!! Winning.

This relationship needs to be reinvented. For a year plus, AppsGoneFree was my first stop in the morning and my last stop at night, waiting for me everyday. Lately, I find myself maybe 3x a week checking in only to leave empty handed, frustrated and bored. Don't get me wrong if you are new to Apps then you'll fall in love like I did with its easy UI, streamline format and beautiful resolution. The price value relationship is unbeatable. Now, it's repetitive and juvenile. It's the same App different developer. I've now downloaded the same convertor and a heart monitor 6 times. I want the good days back when there was a variety and sophistication to each app presented. It felt

I love AppsGoneFreeDailyTips. I’ve gotten some amazing free apps out of it that would normally cost me money. HOWEVER, I’m seeing an increasing number of apps that were already free, but they are highlighting it’s free trial period. Today we have one where they even tell us we need to cancel the subscription before the trial period ends as to not be charged.

That’s not a free app. It’s not even that special. Trial periods are nothing new. I’d rather have one less app featured then have that because it feels like I’m being cheated I’m a weird way.

Some of the apps also seem to expire before the day is even over, which is annoying. “Here is this free app you can’t have because it expired sometime in the middle of the day.” But the new apps also seem to roll over at weird times (maybe different times each day—I haven’t kept track to be certain).

Realistically I can’t complain much because they are getting us free apps that aren’t normally free. And it’s a solid program. These are just some things I’d like to see addressed in a future update.

Seriously, I love AppsGoneFreeDailyTips. Not only do I get to downtown apps for free that normally cost money, but it’s also opened my eyes to so many useful and fun apps I hadn’t heard of before. If I have any problem with it at all, it’s that now I have way too many apps on my phone lol.
One request for the developers: if it’s possible, could you add a “watch list” that users could add paid app names to that we hope go on sale? Then send a notification when one does? There are some days I forget to look and I’d hate to miss an app I was hoping for. A few years ago, I used another price-watch app that had this and it was super useful. Thanks for all you do!

I’ve had AppsGoneFreeDailyTips for a number of years. I go through spurts when I check it daily and others when I’m too busy to think about it. I’ve gotten some really good apps that have since been improved and now cost more than I saved with App Advice. I’ve even written a few developers/companies and asked for help to restore AppsGoneFreeDailyTips when I have an account but forgot my password. When App Advice says you get the premium App, you do, and if you forget your password a few years down the road it’s all good. Very handy apps for free, yes please!

This used to be one of my top few fav. apps. I’ve been a user since way before the transition to the current version. It used to offer so many very useful, quality apps for Free about 6-8 per day. Now it’s 3 & I’m expecting it to drop lower or to 0 soon. I!ve checked AppsGoneFreeDailyTips almost everyday for years. It might be more by habit, today. I’m very disappointed even saddened to see such an excellent app slowly dwindle away. 3 Stars for nostalgia & a dim glimmer of hope. To me, it's like a small-mid size company doing great things that gets bought by a Venture Capitalist & streamlined, downsized both quality & product suffer big-time. It runs on a shoestring, but it doesn’t work so good. Waiting for the final shoe to drop. American business in a nutshell

This is a great app that I try to reference daily. The only complaint that I have is that I may have become an app hoarder. If an app sounds at all interesting I will download it but then I will postpone actually testing it out so I end up with a pile of new apps. To attempt to help organize this I just use the last page on my phone for new apps and then create groups to categorize them. Then, when I need to use that type of app, I will give it a try. Then I either keep AppsGoneFreeDailyTips and move it to a permanent spot on another page, or delete it after leaving a rating so I know not to download that app again.

Imagine every day being given new recommended apps to try for free. Seriously, whoever is picking these seems to know exactly what I need and like and my criteria for a good app. Sometimes those apps cost anywhere between 99 cents and 15 bucks when they are at full price. I have found some wonderful treasures here over the years including Monument Valley, which I love. I have found games, cookbooks, relaxation, sleep, wake, family organization apps that I use every day. So checkin every day and don't forget to check the dates you missed. Some expire in hours but some will be free for a month. Enjoy!

I've used and recommended Apps Gone Free since 2014. It's been on the first page of every iPhone since and I still check it daily. I've enjoyed exploring the wide range of apps featured. I wasn't sold on the new format or name at first just because I was so used to the old version. However, I ended up reading a few of the articles and ended up warming up. For the past few weeks, every app I've tried to download is not free when I get it from AppsGoneFreeDailyTips Store. I've sent in a question regarding this frustration but have yet to receive a response. I am about ready to just delete AppsGoneFreeDailyTips and move on. It's really a bummer considering how much I use it. I'll probably have some withdrawals :-(

AppsGoneFreeDailyTips has always been fine, besides being a nice reference of new apps and developments on a day-by-day basis.
Unfortunately, the most recent updates stopped working after a few hours, what seems to be a server issue (however, I have been able to make it come alive by simply uninstalling and reinstalling again, what really doesn't seem to be server-related issue).
Anyway, I hope these recent issues are quickly solved. I'll be happy to review App Advice back to 5-Star as soon as a stable version is achieved...
Review update: back to 5-Star as promised... Good job!
