Keeping up with the latest and greatest apps and games is a difficult task, but I’m here to help. Each month, I detail a list of the best new Android apps and games, and this edition is packed classic pixel art titles and fresh Android apps.
Let’s jump right in. Here are the best new Android apps and games you should try in August 2025.
Luck By Chance
Decisions are hard. Get your phone to make them for you. Price: Free
Free Developer: Nishan Devaiah Remember Magic 8 balls? I used them often to confirm my biases when making a decision.

Luck By Chance, as luck would have it, is an app I recently encountered and have used several times as a digital coin flipper, number generator, and recipe picker.
The app offers several options to help you overcome indecision. In addition to the options mentioned above, there is a workout generator, a bucket list idea creator, a trivia question picker, and a “luck meter.” Most of these items are innocent fun, but the latter hit the nail on the head. My current luck percentage is 16%, which feels pretty accurate.
Notably, these apps usually prompt a raised eyebrow from me, but Luck By Chance requires no permissions and collects no data. Best of all, it’s completely free.
