5. Fleksy Keyboard

Fleksy is one of the most popular third party keyboards, and brings a good facsimilie of the BlackBerry experience to Android and iOS - but it allows for a fair amount of customisation with colours and themes as well. Android users get a discount right now, but it's still cheaper on iOS without a sale.

iOS (Rs. 60)

6. Plex

For many people, Plex is the app of choice for managing your media and sharing it across multiple devices. Just install the Plex Media Server on your home PC (free ) and stream media to your smartphone or tablet using Plex.

Android (approximately Rs. 123, usually Rs. 300)

7. Jimi Guitar

This app is not on sale for Black Friday or Cyber Monday, but rather Jimi Hendrix's birthday. It's a fun app and a good deal so check it out - this app is one of the best apps that lets you turn your Android phone into a real guitar - it comes with modes to teach you chords, songs and can let you just strum and have fun too. Jimi Guitar is only available for Android.

Android (Rs. 110, usually Rs. 220)

8. PhotoSuite 3 Pro

Another deal that's only for Android users - PhotoSuite 3 pro is a powerful image editing app but it's pretty expensive normally compared to the competition. Right now though, there's a 90 percent discount for Thanksgiving, so it's definitely worth buying.

iOS (Rs. 300)

10. Oxford Dictionary of English with Audio

Another Amazon app deal, the Oxford Dictionary app, is an expensive but very thorough dictionary app that includes a smart search function to help you discover words that you can't remember, instead of only showing you the meanings of words you know.
