  • A good app

    I've been trying this out and I find it interesting, it's also informative. Good it introduces you to new applications, there's no catch. And it's fun and enjoyable it also enables you to leave feed back directly inside of the app to email the support staff
  • I held off upgrading this until recently

    .. because I read all the bad reviews of the new version. Thinking they are bound to have ironed out the glitches, unfortunately I now did it. Looks like they completely recoded the thing from scratch.

    In every way this is a worse app that it was before. Looks extremely clumsy. Even the typesetting (leading). Where the app authors name and the app names are printed over each other. Making it difficult to read even the titles. A terrible lazy mistake. It generally has a very poor visual design. All basic basic stuff. It's also noticeably much slower than it was before. And there are other things missing like the screenshots of the app.

    The old version, although it had a weird kind of Skeuomorphic, fake leather book look, at least it worked and delivered.

  • Original format was much simpler & better

    I enjoyed the old format of this app 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 the app would have a better feel without this section.
    I give this app 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!

  • Great App

    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 the app 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.

  • Good value

    Love this app. Have picked up some very handy apps that I didn't know were available until this app notified me. Their daily questions are very informative too. Worth downloading!
  • It seems like the quality off apps offered has decreased

    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 this app 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.

  • This App is a MUST HAVE

    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 the app 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 this app is so awesome and so useful everyday that I just had to leave this review. Thanks for creating this application!

  • EASY AND GOOD PICKS

    I'm new to App Store and this is my fav app!
  • Longtime user, first time disappointed

    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 the App Store. I've sent in a question regarding this frustration but have yet to receive a response. I am about ready to just delete the app and move on. It's really a bummer considering how much I use it. I'll probably have some withdrawals :-(
