Hannah Habeebee McHats is a cool free app that comes recommended by Digital Storytime, where it was rated 4.5 stars:
"Hannah Habeebee McHats is 'crazy about hats!' ... and not just your typical hats. She loves both large and small, but also more exotic hats, like those that glow, make noise, and even taste "oh, so sweet" (think cupcake)!"
Lily and I will definitely be checking this one out later! Digital Storytime noted that this app even received a "coveted Kirkus star!" (I don't know what that means.)
** Only the app's developer can control when an app is free or not. All apps that we post as Good Free Apps of the Day are verified to be free at the time of this post. We make no guarantees otherwise. **

Every day we pick what we affectionately call the Good Free App of the Day, an app that we have downloaded, tested and certified: It can't have a ton of ads or just a little content with a ton of in-app purchases.
It also has to be good.
We then present them to you to read, download, and share and, based on which ones got the most hits, here are your Top 100 Favorite Free Apps!
We've done our best to only include apps that are permanently free, but sometimes developers do change their minds so please leave a comment if you find an app that's no longer free.
