The "simple" suite of apps was bought by zippoapps, a company that buys popular apps and adds incredibly aggressive monetization that is basically just trying to scam users. You know those "free trials" that cost like 300€ per week once the trial is up so you forget to cancel and pay a bunch of money for an app you don't want? Yeah that.
