While we’re all having fun on Halloween, our poor smartphones are being neglected and left out of the good times. Not any more. We’ve put together a few apps to bring Halloween to your phones. This month’s special App Roundup: Halloween Edition focuses on fun and useful apps instead of the usual stability ranking. We’re also releasing it in time for our readers to download and test the apps in plenty of time for Halloween, but be sure to check in at the end of the month for our normal App Roundup!
