We have eight fresh paid iPhone and iPad apps for you to check out on Thursday, and they’re of course all on sale for free for a limited time. Hundreds of premium apps go on sale for free each day, and we dig through them for you to find the cream of the crop. If eight apps aren’t enough for you and you happened to miss our roundup yesterday, there are actually still a few freebies you can download in that post.
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. Subscribe to our feed to be notified as soon as these posts are published, and you’ll avoid missing the sales we cover.
