TILLA PREMIUM $3.09, Google Android
If you’ve tried to track your many app and service subscriptions before only to be hit with another subscription fee to do it, this app could provide sweet relief. The paid version of Tilla’s sub-tracking app costs a one-off $3.09 and lets you track as many monthly payments as you want, with a running total of how much you’re spending per month and customised alerts when your next payment is due. Some subs are even preset for you.
TOUR DE FRANCE Free, Apple iOS/Google Android
The world’s biggest cycling race not only spans a huge distance but takes up a lot of time. Those keen on catching up with the peloton through this month can do so in this free app that tracks the racers over all 21 stages, delivers rider profiles, and expert commentary on the competition. Plus, there is a cycling dictionary to peruse, plenty of video highlights, and a fantasy league.
NOTECIRCLE Free, Apple iOS/Google Android
There are plenty of apps to record your daily tasks but NoteCircle offers one of the best layouts. The app lets you record regular tasks and routines, and provides a weekly view for your to-do list.

Those who subscribe for a yearly fee of $49 can receive timely alerts if their flight is delayed, cancelled or moved unexpectedly, get updates by SMS, and have the app send family members flight changes automatically.
BOWLING 3D $8/m, Apple Arcade
My Bowling 3D+ could give you new ideas for your next visit to your local alley. The surprisingly realistic game features all the textures and physics of a typical bowling alley (though none of the rented shoes) and serious players can tweak their shots to try different ball positions and deliveries. There are also more than 20 bowling balls from which to choose and four player profiles to save.
