If you’re planning to brave the crowds on Black Friday, don’t do it alone.

Chances are you’ll be heading to the stores on Black Friday (or maybe even Thanksgiving) with a smartphone in hand. And while you could search for deals in your phone’s browser, downloading apps dedicated to Black Friday and finding offers is your best bet. The apps are free, list all of the offers from big and small retailers, and help you create a shopping plan.

But rather than waste time searching through the App Store or Google Play marketplace to find a good Black Friday app, we’ve compiled the following roundup of programs that will help you find the best deals and optimize your time on Black Friday. Check it out:

DealNews

DealNews is a free app that lets you quickly access the latest deals from a variety of big-name retailers, including Amazon, Walmart, Best Buy, and others. It also gives you a tool to look up Black Friday ads for each retailer and finds you the best price at different stores on the products you’re most interested in. There’s even an alert function so you can be notified to deals.
