Yesterday’s list of paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free was our biggest of the week, but today’s is just as good in terms of quality. You’ll find plenty to choose from among the 12 paid iOS apps on sale for free that we’ve collected for today’s batch, and there are also still a few freebies to be found in yesterday’s post.

UP NEXT: AT&T just increased fees to upgrade to a new phone – even if you bring your own

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.
