The Best Free Software

Here is an ever growing list of free apps you can download on your Windows, Mac, and Smartphone.

Screen Recorder & Streaming

The most popular screen recording software you can find on the market.

Internet Browser

My favorite internet browser. Safe, secure, free, and no YouTube ads to boot. This is the only browser I use with YouTube.

The amount of time you save not watching YouTube ads will put a smile on your face.

Office Suite

Libre Office

Alternative to Microsoft Office Suite, including Word, Spreadsheets, and Powerpoint.

You can also look into the Google Workspace that includes a host of apps including Docs, Spreadsheets, Presentations, Google Drive, and Gmail.

Video Editing

Clipchamp

A solid free video editing platform held back by its lack of free content and sometimes lacking UI.

Capcut

My personal favorite free video editing software due to its large selection of free content to utilize for videos as well as its user interface.

DaVinci Resolve

This software has a pedigree for being used on many high profile Hollywood films, but it is the most complicated of the 3. Try out the free version out and see if it clicks with you. You will need to dive into some tutorials on YouTube before truly jumping in.

Voice and Video Calls

You'll need a traditional mobile number in order to get a Whatsapp number.

Zoom

Zoom has gone downhill in recent years when it comes to the features and usability of its free software compared to Microsoft Teams or

Google Meet

A very capable free voice and video call platform that allows screen sharing, making this superior to Zoom.

Discord

Texting, voice chat, and video chatting. Encrypted, fast, and used by millions.

Google Voice

The best second number you can pair with your mobile number.
