The year 2015 is almost upon us, and there’s no better way to ring in the new year than to legally acquire free apps that you’d normally have to pay for. A whole bunch of paid apps are now available for free, courtesy of Amazon.

If this all seems like deja vu to you, that’s because Amazon just had a big app sale last week. Unlike that sale, however, the deal Amazon has for you today is part of the retail giant’s Free App of the Day Bundle. In other words, you’ll only have until the end of the day to pick up these apps. Thankfully, there are many apps worth getting, including:

  • Alarm Clock Xtreme
  • Calculator Plus
  • AVG AntiVirus PRO Android Security
  • Pho.to Lab PRO
  • Bills Reminder
  • Orrery
  • BuildCalc
  • Xtralogic Remote Desktop Client
  • Distant Suns
  • Food Diary and Calorie Tracker PRO
  • JETFIT Pro
  • Deep Sleep with Andrew Johnson
  • Mini Piano

Not one to leave things out, Amazon is also giving away several free games, which include:

  • Monopoly
  • Angry Birds Star Wars
  • Stack the States
  • Fruit Ninja
  • Riptide GP2
  • Kingdom Rush Frontiers
  • Table Top Racing
  • Sparkle 2 Evo
  • LYNE
  • Clockwork Tales: Of Glass and Ink
  • République
  • Thomas Was Alone
  • Townsmen Premium
  • Alice Trapped in Wonderland
  • Patchworkz
  • Might and Magic Clash of Heroes
  • Garfield’s Escape
  • Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Past
  • Buttons and Scissors Pro
  • Azkend 2: The World Beneath

As previously mentioned, these apps and games are only free for today, so if you’re interested in any of Amazon’s offerings, it’d be best to start downloading them now before it’s too late.

One year later, Amazon still makes one of the best Android tablets you can get
The front of the Amazon Kindle Fire Max 11 with its keyboard case.

The Amazon Fire Max 11 was one of my favorite Android tablets released in recent memory. It’s well-priced, portable, and has a good selection of accessories. With a bit of patience, you can add Google Play to make it more usable.

A fair time has passed since I used it, though, so does it still hold up a year after I first fell in love?

Long-awaited pro-level video app arrives on Android, with a catch
A promotional image showing the Blackmagic Camera app for Android.

Blackmagic, the company known for making the digital cameras and editing software used for movies from Oppenheimer to Godzilla Minus One, has released a camera app for your Android phone. Blackmagic Camera for Android follows the Blackmagic Camera app for iPhone, which was released in September of last year. Apple was so impressed with it that it used it to shoot its October 2023 event where new Macs were introduced.

However, before you rush off to the Google Play Store ,there is a small catch. The Blackmagic Camera app is only available for Samsung and Google Pixel smartphones, so it won’t work on your OnePlus, Motorola, or any other Android maker’s phone. The better news is the app is entirely free and does not come with in-app purchases to unlock additional features, but some more advanced features do rely on the Blackmagic Cloud service, which does have associated costs.

Although there's a pretty good chance you already have a phone number on your smartphone, your primary number assigned by your carrier isn't your only option for calling and texting. There are numerous free apps that can give you a second number you can use to do nearly everything your main phone line can.

This is a great way to protect your privacy in situations where you'd rather not give out your "real" phone number. A secondary number can be useful for dealing with telemarketers or when you may need to send texts and receive calls on behalf of a volunteer organization you work with.
