Best Free iPhone Apps

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

We rounded up the nine best paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free yesterday, and several of them are still freebies if you hurry. Don’t worry if you missed out, though, because we’ve got a fresh new list for you today of 10 temporarily free iOS apps. Grab them while you can, because theses sales won’t last long.

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.
