Prime Day 2017 was massive, but Amazon isn’t the only game in town when it comes to hot deals. There are also plenty of bargains to be found in Apple’s iOS App Store, and today we’ve got eight paid iPhone and iPad apps to share that are all on sale for free for a limited time.

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.
