If you’re an iPhone user, you probably haven’t been too interested in our coverage of the OnePlus 2 or the new Moto X phones. But don’t worry — we’ve rounded up eight different paid iPhone apps for you to download that are completely free for a limited time. Check them all out below!

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.
