Best Free iPhone Apps

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

Yesterday’s roundup of Wednesday’s best paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free was a great one, and there are still several free downloads remaining in that post if you missed it. Of course, we’ve got a fresh new batch of limited-time sales for you to check out on Thursday, so you’ll find 10 new apps below.

This post covers paid iPhone and iPad apps that have been made available for free for a limited time by their developers. BGR is not affiliated with any 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 anyway, you will be charged by Apple.
