App Store Updates and Android Free App Promotions Highlight New Deals
Apple’s App Store introduced several updates: Notability Classic now offers a one‑time purchase for all core features, Fränk’s mobile‑network app received a redesign for better usage insight, TestFlight 4.3 adds a search function for beta apps, and Apple Invitations gained emoji reactions and a confetti animation. The Smart‑Home platform Itsyhome 3.0 added a live camera grid, automatic device groups and new automations, while Signal introduced group‑chat tools such as message deletion, chat pinning and mute options for calls. In a content‑sharing move, streaming service Joyn agreed with Germany’s ZDF to embed ZDF’s programming, planning a launch in the autumn.
Separately, the Android market listed a series of paid apps that are temporarily free, including Police Department Tycoon Pro, Box Head, Spelling Challenge PRO, Jewels Match 3 Puzzle, Sudoku Master Premium, and the post‑apocalyptic survival title Dead God Land – Light Survival. These offers are time‑limited and promoted via the Google Play Store.
