Believe it or not, Apple actually doubled the amount of storage that will be included on the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. That’s right, you’ll get either 32GB, 128GB or 256GB of storage to fill with photos, videos and, you guessed it, apps. Today’s list has 10 paid iPhone and iPad apps that are all on sale for free for a limited time.

MUST READ: All the reasons Apple’s ‘boring’ new iPhone 7 will be its most exciting iPhone ever

These are paid iPhone and iPad apps that have been made available for free for a limited time by their developers. There is no way to tell how long they will be free. These sales could end an hour from now or a week from now — obviously, the only thing we can guarantee is that they were free at the time this post was written. If you click on a link and see a price listed next to an app instead of the word “get,” it is no longer free. The sale has ended. If you download the app, you will be charged.

VisualRuler

visualruler

Normally $1.99.

Need to measure the size of the object but do not have a ruler? VisualRuler calculates the size of objects in the image using computer vision techniques . You will need to use a card as a reference object. Everything is done offline on your phone.

HOW TO USE
1.) Take a picture of an object you want to measure next to any card
2.) VisualRuler will automatically detect the card. If you don’t like the detection result you can readjust the reference rectangle.
3.) Add lines or rectangles around objects you want to measure.
4.) Export the result image or share on social networks.
