WhatsApp Messenger Free for Limited Time
WhatsApp (TMA Review), one of the most popular messenger apps for the iPhone, has dropped in price to free (previously $0.99). For those of you not familiar, here’s a quick rundown courtesy of iTunes:
WhatsApp messenger is a cross platform smartphone messenger currently available for iPhone, Android, BlackBerry and Nokia phones. The application utilizes push notifications to instantly get messages from friends, colleagues and family. Switch from SMS to WhatsApp to send and receive messages, pictures, audio notes, and video messages at no cost. All features are included without the need for extra in-application purchases.
Aside from the features and the fact that it doesn’t cost you a dime to send/receive messages, the best part about the app is that a good number of iOS users are already on it; in fact, you’d be surprised at how many of your friends are whatsappin’ once you get set up (which takes a minute or so). No word on how long the freebie will last until, so be sure to grab it while the deal’s still on.

Freebie ‘O the Day: Revolt
For those of you who enjoy dual stick shooters, here’s a great Freebie for you. Revolt, a visually impressive and solid 3D dual stick shooter is now free for one day. ChiffaN reviewed this one recently and had this to say:
Revolt is a solid dual-stick shooter that will probably appeal to the more experienced audience. The story levels are huge and it’s easy to get lost in them, but if you don’t mind a little backtracking along the way, this shouldn’t be an issue. The customization opportunities are quite nice, giving the player more control over your character that is common for the genre.
Since the game runs in 3D and is rather graphics intensive, older iDevice owners may run into lag issues during later parts of the game. No matter, if you enjoy good action and blowing things up, don’t miss out on this paid–>free offer. It won’t last long!
