Happy Friday, Apple fans. We’ve got one last roundup for you to check out this week of the day’s best paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free. There’s something for everyone on today’s list, including some great augmented reality apps and a few games that are tons of fun. You’ll also find a couple remaining freebies in yesterday’s post if you want even more free apps, but hurry because any or all of these sales could be over before you know it.

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 these apps will remain free. The 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.
