Best Free iPhone Apps

If you buy through a BGR link, we may earn an affiliate commission, helping support our expert product labs.

There are still a few freebies left in yesterday’s roundup of the best paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free, but don’t worry if you miss them. Why? Because we’ve got six fresh free downloads for you to check out on Tuesday, and they represent the best sales you’ll find in the App Store. They’re all only free for a limited time though, so hurry up and download them while they’re still free.

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 app 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. Some apps may have additional in-app purchases. Subscribe to our RSS feed or use that feed to create an email alert so you’ll be notified as soon as these posts are published and avoid missing the sales we cover.

FAQ

“What does it look like to someone who doesn’t have the app?”
To non-MailTime users, messages appear as normal emails. If you’d like to view the original email within MailTime, you can tap on the corresponding bubble.

“Does my friend have to download MailTime app to chat with me?”

No. All your friends need is an email address. MailTime is a messenger which leverages email as its platform. Whatever clients or softwares your friends are using, they can still send emails to you via your email address. MailTime syncs all your desktop emails, and presents them in a mobile-friendly messaging style.

Dwelp

Normally $0.99.

Dwelp is a Playond exclusive. Download and subscribe to enjoy an ever-growing collection of wonderful games.

Dwelp is an elegant little puzzler with a brand new game mechanic. To complete a puzzle, just link all of the same-colored dots by placing them one near another. There’s a catch, though… Once you have connected two dots, the others of the same color become locked in their place.

It’s so simple to understand, yet it opens up a whole world of possibilities! Why “only” 120 puzzles, then? Because they were carefully selected from hundreds of others, in order to offer you only the best of the best.

Each puzzle has more than one solution (and some have thousands). Will you find the one that requires the least number of moves? That’s the real challenge! Should you complete it, you will be treated to a select number of puzzles that are bordering on impossibility. But the satisfaction of solving one of those can’t be described in words…

Designed specifically for the iOS devices and carefully crafted to the tiniest detail, Dwelp brings you puzzle solving at its finest.

=== FEATURES ===

• 120 hand-crafted puzzles with a smooth difficulty curve
• An ultra-hard puzzle pack, if you are up to a tough challenge and have some good hours to spare
• Bonus puzzle pack with a different type of gameplay
• Handy features like the puzzle previewer, the progress saver and the powerful undoer, to enhance your gaming experience
• Easy one-handed portrait-mode control
• Working equally fine in landscape mode without any rotation

Enjoy!
