Barnes & Noble adds Nook apps to its weekly giveaways |
March 08, 2013
Looking to increase the value of its Android-based Nook tablets, Barnes & Noble on Friday said it will offer a different paid app free of charge every Friday for Nook HD, Nook HD+, Nook Tablet, and Nook Color owners.
The promotion kicks off March 8 with a free download of OfficeSuite Professional 7 from MobiSystems. Office Pro 7 usually costs $15 at the Nook app store as well as on Google Play and the Amazon Appstore for Android.
Nook users are accustomed to getting freebies from the bookseller through Barnes & Noble’s Free Fridays promotion. Until now, however, Barnes & Noble focused on offering free e-books. Now the company will offer one e-book and one app each week.
Other freebies
App giveaways are becoming a trend from major tablet makers. Barnes & Noble’s freebies follow Amazon’s daily paid app promotion, which began in 2011 when the online retailer introduced its Appstore for Android. Apple’s App Store in 2012 also began offering a free app of the week every Thursday for iPhone and iPad users.
