If you buy through a BGR link, we may earn an affiliate commission, helping support our expert product labs.

Well, we’ve done it. Despite how great our list of paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free was yesterday, we’ve managed to put together an even better list today. We’ve got a killer weather app, several hot sticker packs including separate packs for Trump and Hillary, a very cool app that lets you use your computer’s keyboard to type on your iPhone or iPad, and so much more. Check them all out below.

DON’T MISS: Under no circumstances should you buy a Galaxy Note 7

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.

KeyWi Keyboard

keywi-keyboard

Normally $1.99.

KeyWi is a custom keyboard for your iOS device that allows you to type using your computer’s physical keyboard.

+ How does it work?
After you install the KeyWi keyboard you simply switch to it (the same way you would switch to the emoji keyboard for example) and go to the address provided by the keyboard using your computer’s web browser. Once the connection between the keyboard and the computer’s web browser is established you will be able to type using your computer’s keyboard and what you type will appear on the iPhone. Make sure your device and computer are on the SAME wifi network.

Don’t worry everything that you type is PRIVATE as it is only sent from computer to device using your LOCAL wifi network. What you type NEVER leaves your local wifi network and never goes over the internet.

+ Installation instructions:
You first need to install the keyboard on your iOS device: Open Settings app > General > Keyboards > Add new keyboard > ‘KeyWi’. Then tap on the ‘KeyWi’ keyboard again and allow ‘Full Access’. This allows the app to communicate over your wifi network. Again, what you type is only sent from your computer to the device and it never travels over the internet and never gets stored anywhere

+ What you CAN do with KeyWi
– Type any character in any language
– Send emojis (In-app purchase required)
– Move the cursor forward and backwards
– Delete backwards

+ What you CAN’T do with KeyWi
– Select text. Once you enter text you can delete backwards, move the position of the cursor but you can’t select text
– Interact with the application UI.
