Yesterday’s list of paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free was one of our most popular lists of the month so far, and there are still a few apps from Wednesday that are on sale for free. But guess what: today’s list is even better! We’ve got 11 fresh premium iOS apps on sale for you to check out today, and you’ll find them all listed below.

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.

Battery Doc

battery-doc

Normally $1.99.

Providing useful and relevant data revolving around battery health and general device information on a neat screen with unrivaled accuracy.

As stated by apps400.com:
▶ apps400.com: “… accurate and precise unlike most other apps.” ◀

Each button has a clearly labeled function and all screens are designed to be easily understood, granting access to basic information and for more detailed specs when needed.

Different users need different information, ranging from very basic like battery health and state to advanced numbers about network traffic and detailed hardware information.

Top Features:
▸ Unrivaled accuracy
▸ Direct access to information and data
▸ Proprietary algorithms for detailed uptime prognostics
▸ Limit warnings
▸ In-depth system information
▸ Per-service runtime analysis
▸ Available runtime per task calculation
▸ Extended runtime calculation on per app basis
▸ Save Device Information and collect it in iTunes

While delivering important and useful information, Battery Doc proves its use when you need to know how much time is left for a specific task. Battery Doc precisely calculates how long the battery is able to play music, to watch video, to play games in 2D or 3D before it needs the next charging.

Charging statistics not only counts how often the device is plugged and unplugged, the statistics only contain relevant charging cycles, and warn you when you should avoid charging your battery.
A battery too hot or too cold when charging can damage both the battery and the iPhone, Battery Doc warns you when you try to charge your iPhone under critical circumstances.

Optimizing Battery Life to make it last longer depends on of how your iPhone is used. Battery Doc tells you exactly which service is using how much of your remaining power, and can therefore tell you exactly how much longer your battery will last by disabling specific services.
Furthermore, it tells you how long your battery will last if you use your iPhone just for one single, specific task like gaming or video watching.

Extending battery life is a myth. Every app or tool with such a promise is fraud!
Reducing Battery wear on the other side is real, and exactly the purpose of Battery Doc.

When do you start taking care of your iPhones battery?

Sidefari

sidefari

Normally $0.99.

Sidefari is a simple web browser that is designed to act as a companion to Safari.

Sidefari uses what’s called a Safari View Controller from Apple to display a “mini” version of Safari that shares many features with the full Safari app, like content blockers. How can this help you?

In iOS 10:
Sidefari features an extension called “Open Modally in Safari” that will enable you to bring a Safari-based window inside of other apps that enable ways to share website URLs. Why would you want to do this? Perhaps you prefer the convenience of having some Safari features inside the same app, or if you’re conscious about your privacy perhaps you don’t want to use the custom web browser many apps have.
** Please note that in order for Sidefari to work in iOS 10, you need version 10.2 or greater.

In iOS 9:
When on an iPad, besides the “Open Modally in Safari” extension mentioned above, Sidefari shows as an extra Safari-based browser on the side of your screen thanks to multi-tasking. Now you’ll be able to have two websites simultaneously on the same screen.
** Please note that compatible iPads include the iPad Air 2, iPad mini 4, and iPad Pro.

Please refer to the “How to set up the extension” and “FAQ” sections inside the app to learn more about how to use Sidefari.

Enjoy!

The Detail

Normally $2.99.

****The whole three-episode season is now available for free on iOS! No in-app purchases necessary. We’ll just ask you to indulge us and enjoy some quick commercial breaks instead. ****

=======

“The quality and love that’s clearly been invested in this game is there for all to see, and one that’s worth the asking price.” 4.5/5 – 148Apps

“The Detail: Episode One – Where The Dead Lie sets things up nicely for the rest of the series. It’s sharp, very well written, and you’re never quite sure what the cast of characters are going to do next.” 8/10 – Pocket Gamer

“From experiencing heinous crimes daily to having to constantly stay on guard to budget issues that directly impede your ability to properly do your job, my time with The Detail was an experience I won’t soon forget.”
Great: 4 out of 5 stars – Gamezebo

“No matter how you slice The Detail, it’s just a well crafted experience that will leave a lasting impression.” 4.0 / 5.0 – AppleNApps

=======

The Detail, a crime noir adventure in a modern American city.

Controlling the actions of a bitter veteran detective investigating a brutal gangland murder and a reformed criminal trying to protect his family, the player is forced to make tough choices and deal with the resulting consequences of those moral dilemmas. The gameplay focuses on branching narrative mixed with interactive comics, and is completed by a professional audio track.

The Detail combines the emotional impact of Telltale Games’ The Walking Dead with the themes of a realistic crime drama like HBO’s The Wire, delivered with our own unique visual style inspired heavily by graphic novels. This is city where cases matter, clearance rates matter, and on a good day even justice matters.

Features

– Character-driven experience with multiple playable characters
– Branching storyline influenced by the player’s choices
– Mature themes for mature players
– Ethical and moral challenges
