According to just about every Apple analyst out there, Apple had a killer quarter to finish out the calendar year in 2014. The company is expected to have sold more combined iPhones and iPads than ever before, which means there are tens of millions of people out there who just got their hands on new iOS devices. Of course, what better way to celebrate all those new phones and tablets than by filling them with awesome paid apps that are on sale for free for a limited time.
Today, we’ve got eight apps that normally cost a combined $56 to buy, but each and every one of them is free if you hurry.
DON’T MISS: These are all the best and worst things about the iPhone 6
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.
