With all of the news focused on Google I/O 2016 today, Apple fans might be feeling a little left out. Don’t be jealous, iOS users, distract yourself instead by loading up on paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free. Today’s list includes some of the best freebies we’ve found all week, including a free in-app purchase for a great Reddit app, a cool app that lets you add filters to Live Photos, an app that lets you use your iPhone as a wireless number pad for your computer, and plenty more.

You’ll also find several remaining free downloads in yesterday’s post to help pass the time during I/O.

MUST SEE: This hidden iPhone trick just became my new favorite feature

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.
