Best Android Apps and Free Android Apps

iTunes offers the Autodesk SketchBook Pro Upgrade for iPhone and iPad for free. (Google Play has it for Android and Microsoft Store has it for Windows for the same.) That's a savings of $85 per year for the full version of this sketching/art app. (The app has always been free; however, this is the in-app upgrade that is now free.)

Note: Sketchbook has it for your Mac or 64-bit Windows for free, too!

iTunes offers Ultimate Guitar: Chords and Tabs for iPhone and iPad for free. (Google Play also has it for free for Android.) That's a savings of $3 on this instructive guitar app.

The Apple App Store offers downloads of Newton Gravity Puzzle of iPhone and iPad for free. (Google Play charges the same for Android.) That's a buck off and the lowest price we could find.

Amazon offers downloads of Mind Games Pro for Android for free. (Google Play has it for the same price.) That's $3 off and tied with our October mention as the best price we could find for this collection of puzzle-based games.

Google Play discounts a selection of game downloads for Android. Several titles are free, then start at 99 cents beyond that. A couple of best bets:

• Hitman Sniper for Android for free (pictured, $1 off, first-person shooter)
• AngL for Android for free ($1 off, minimalist puzzle game)
