• It is totally free 
• You need to pay to gain lifetime access or monthly, or yearly subscription
• Pay in Apps  – apps that are normally free, or with a free trial, but upgrading to a premium/ pro account comes with a monthly or yearly subscription fee
• Pay in Apps – free apps that can be used completely free. The drawback: unless you subscribe and pay a subscription fee, you are often disturbed by audio/video/graphic banners, commercials
