Best Free iPhone Apps

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

We got an above average amount of positive feedback on yesterday’s post covering paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free, so we have some good news: several of those apps are still on sale for free right now, and you can grab them if you hurry. Now, we have even better news: Today’s list packs nine more paid iOS apps on sale for free.

DON’T MISS: Apple’s iPhone 6s is almost here… time to take out the trash

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.

Rock Like The Pros is an innovative guitar method designed specifically for the beginning student.

The concept behind Rock Like The Pros is to teach you the things that you want and need to know to become a better guitar player. All lessons are designed and taught by master musician Terry Carter, who has 25 years of teaching, performing, and producing experience. Terry received his Master’s of Music from the University of Southern California. Besides teaching thousands of students at colleges such as USC, SDSU, Santa Monica College, Cypress College & LA City College, he has worked with Weezer, Josh Groban, Chris Tin, and Duff Mckagen.

Terry Carter developed the Rock Like The Pros method after realizing that there was nothing on the market that met the high demands that he experienced in both the classroom or private lesson setting. He spend years writing and testing this material with thousands of students of all age levels before presenting this material to you. He decided to introduce interactive technology to this course in order to speed up the learning process and get you playing more quickly. This technology allows you to practice guitar anywhere, anytime, 24/7.

App designed by Terry Carter, Scott Loring, and Brandon Bernstein
