Today’s apps gone free: Quick Drafts, Formulas, Flowpaper and more
iPhone:
Quick Drafts isn’t just fast, it’s also extremely useful. Every time you open it you’ll be presented with a blank page, allowing you to generate notes in an instant. But you don’t have to just record simple notes, as you’re able to convert them into to-do lists and events that can be shared or saved to the cloud. The app also includes the ability to create tappable links and landscape orientation support.
Quick Drafts – Notes, Errands and Shopping List is available for free for a limited time. It has a 4.5-star rating with a total of 645 ratings.
Hindsight allows you to track the occurrences of anything and everything you wish. Each entry simply needs a title and a record of its first occurrence. Hindsight will then start a timer and keep it running while you’re away. Whenever an event takes place, swipe to record it. Alerts can be set up as well based on the time elapsed between occurrences. Each event includes detailed history and a histogram that can reveal patterns.
Hindsight – Time Interval & History Tracker is available for free for a limited time. It has a 4.5-star rating with a total of 23 ratings.

Anyone can paint with Flowpaper. As you drag your finger across the screen, Flowpaper will add its own beautiful waves of color.

You’re able to import any photo from your library or take a new one from within the app. You’ll then see three interactive circles on the screen: gradient, blur, and pattern.

You can preview your new wallpaper before saving or sharing it via Twitter, Facebook, or AirDrop.
