Apple fans, you’ve got about two weeks left to fill up those iPhones before Apple releases new iPhones that you’ll have to fill up. In the meantime, you’ll find 10 paid iPhone and iPad apps in this post that are all free downloads right now, but only for a limited time.

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.
