We started the week off with a solid list of eight paid iPhone and iPad apps that were all on sale for free for a limited time, and a number of them can still be had for free if you hurry back to that post. Today, however, we have a great new list for you with seven more paid iOS apps that are all free downloads for a short time.
There are a few real gems on today’s list — especially for all the mobile photographers out there — so be sure to snag them as quickly as possible or you might miss these great sales.
DON’T MISS: 11 great Google apps you’ve probably never even heard of
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.

“I too get so busy that I forget to to drink fluids during the day unless I’m exercising or at a meal. And then by evening I’m so thirsty, drinks lots of water and then up several times during the night. Argh:/ This app truly helps me get the fluids I need throughout the day. It’s simple and easy to use. Has a nice UI too. (WHY do people give low ratings for the product not doing something it never claimed it could do???? Don’t buy it if it doesn’t do everything you want it to! I love it:)”
“iHydrate is great! As a dancer I need to keep hydrated so I don’t injure myself. I used to forget about drinking water. Now that I have iHydrate it tells me approximately how much water I need to drink for the day. Now I’m now more conscientious about that amount of water I consume. It’s so easy to use. I love the pie chart feature; which shows me my amount of water intake I’ve had for the day. I appreciate the different drink options, because I like having a variety of juices! It’s a great app, I use it so much!”
“I’ve been looking for one of these for a while. And it’s so useful that it’s on my home screen. I have a very busy schedule and forget to drink water a lot. I’ve even gone a whole day without drinking before. That being said since downloading iHydrate, I have met my goal every day. I especially like how I can calculate for all sorts of drinks, and I’ve noticed it calculates a percentage of non-water drinks. That’s really helpful in helping me see how hydrated I am, when I’m not just drinking water.”
