Heroku free quota per-app or total?

Is heroku's free 750 hours separate per app, or is it a total of 750 hours shared across all your apps?

From their site:

"Each app you create has free access to 750 dyno-hours per month and a starter-tier database."

However, from another answer on StackOverflow:

"Heroku provides, for free, 1 dyno. A dyno is an instance of your application running and responding to requests. If each instance of your application can serve each request in 100ms, then you get 600 requests/minute with the free account."

Each app you create within Heroku gets 750 dyno-hours per month for free. The number of requests your app can receive depend on the configuration of the app. For example, an app running unicorn can handle more requests than an app running something else, as unicorn can run multiple workers per dyno.

I've personally run an app on Heroku with 3 unicorn workers on one dyno, 24 hours a day, all month, and always been free (because that is ~750 dyno-hours).

Based off of what it says there and my experience it's per app. That's talking about instances of dynos not apps. "If each instance of your application can serve each request in 100ms, then you get 600 requests/minute with the free account."
