Why they’re free
Each of these does one small job, and I don’t think a small job should come with a subscription. Everything works from the first launch, and nothing is locked.
If one of them ends up staying on your Home Screen and you want to say thanks, there’s a tip jar in its Settings. Leaving a tip doesn’t change anything in the app.
