Free applications, especially with the Nokia Store about to be frozen, have the side benefit that their signed .SIS installers can be downloaded directly. Listed below are utility developer 'huellif's applications, all of which are free, updated in the last 24 hours and worth grabbing.

As shown above, here are the Huellif utilities concerned, which you may wish to grab? There are no changelogs, so consider them bug fix updates only.

• CloseWhatsApp - "With CloseWhatsApp you can close WhatsApp with just one touch. It won't startup again by itself or notifications, it's completely closed."
• NewAlarm - "This is a fast quick access tool to create a new alarm. Never before it was easier to create a new alarm on your phone."
• RebootMe - "RebootMe is simple and fast reboot application. There's no confirmation, launching this app will directly reboot your phone on a fast and safe way."
• Locker - "A simple shortcut to lock your phone. This app can extend the life of your lock key and works always. Hardware key and other lock apps don't work directly after a reboot, this app fixed it."
• (plus) BlueToogle - "A little homescreen shortcut to enable/disable Bluetooth"

Just as a reminder, you can download the signed SIS installer for any free application or game in the Nokia Store by signing in and then adding "/download" to the URL after the application number. This is partly how AAS has built up its own archive of applications, but no doubt you have many of your favourites archived too?

Watch this space for more free applications, including a number that were previously fully commercial.
