These apps normally cost money and this sale lasts for a limited time only. If you go to the App Store and it says the app costs money, that means the deal has expired and you will be charged.

This is one of the best iPhone 16 leaks I’ve seen yet
A green iPhone 15 in hand in front of plant.

Google Gemini app on Android.
