Welcome to our biggest (and perhaps best) list of the week covering paid iPhone and iPad apps that have been made available as free downloads for a limited time. How limited, you ask? There’s simply no way to tell. Some of these sales might last for days while others may end just hours from now. The only way to be safe is to check them all out as soon as you can.

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.
