Best Free iPhone Apps

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

If you thought yesterday’s roundup of the best paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free was a good one, well, you’d be correct. It was one of the best roundups we’ve had in the recent past, and there are still a few freebies in there that you can go back and download if you missed that post yesterday. Thursday brings a fresh new batch of app sales though, and we dug through them all to pick out the six best one. Check them all out 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 app 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. Some apps may have additional in-app purchases. Subscribe to our RSS feed to be notified as soon as these posts are published and you’ll avoid missing the sales we cover.
