If you didn’t get your fill from yesterday’s roundup of the best premium iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free (a few are still freebies if you missed it), we’ve got a fresh batch of apps for you to enjoy on Friday. Today’s roundup includes seven different paid iOS apps that are all free downloads for a limited time, and there’s no telling when these deals might end. In other words, hurry up and grab them while you still can.

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.
