After giving you a great list of paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free that included 10 solid apps, we’re back today with another eight apps that would typically cost a combined $37, but each and every one is completely free if you hurry.

There are also still a few freebies in yesterday’s post, so be sure to check those out as well.

DON’T MISS: iOS 9 is spectacular… and I just uninstalled it

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.

REACHED TOP 100 SOCIAL NETWORKING APPS IN 9 COUNTRIES!

Follow Me – See the Location of Instagram Posts
With Follow Me, you can search for Instagram posts using a map, in addition to searching with hashtags and by user name! Simply go anywhere in the world, push and hold down and instantly you will see all the Instagram posts in that area. With Follow Me, you can see exactly where an Instagram post was actually posted.

Get More Followers
Follow Me can also help you get more Instagram followers. Search the globe for Instagram users, search your area for Instagram users, follow them and then they follow you back. It’s that simple, and really awesome.

How Do I Get Started?
Simple. Download Follow Me, link it to your Instagram account and start using our awesome map feature, where you can search the globe and see people posting to Instagram! All you have to do is push to hold down anywhere on the globe and you’ll see Instagram users in that area. Red pins show you the whole area feed, purple pins show you the individual Instagram user’s picture posts and green pins show you the individual Instagram user’s video posts. Follow them so that they can follow you back!

Time Machine
Now you can go back in time up to six months and search the globe for Instagram posts from a specific time and date. Yes, really!

Map Range
Now you can specify the radius that you want to search in miles or kilometers. Go out as far as three miles or down to 1 tenth of a mile. This is really useful when you’re checking either a big city or a very unpopulated area and you want to get the most relevant posts possible.

History & Favorites
Keep a running tally of every place you’ve searched (you can always erase it if you choose to) and store frequently searched places to your favorites list. This way, you don’t have to keep typing it in to the search bar or zoom in and out of the spot you want to search.

Save Your Media
Now you can save any Instagram picture or video directly to your device without having to screenshot your screen and crop. Simply click “save” and save it all right to your device.

User Insights
Follow Me includes useful insights for users such as which users are following you that you are not following back, users that you are following that are not following you back, which users have given you the most and least likes, which users have given you the most and least comments, and which users have given you the most and least combined likes and comments.

My Activities
Keep track of your own Instagram activities by viewing users whose posts you’ve liked as well as the actual posts you’ve liked. You can also see all the users that you are following, all the users that are following you back and go from user to user and see who their followers are.

Who’s Near Me?
At any time you can go to the Who’s Near Me page where you’ll see a list of all the Instagram users in your area. You can follow them one by one or just click to follow all of them at once and then automatically see a new batch of Instagram users in your area.

Auto Follow
With our unique auto follow feature enabled, you will automatically follow back any Instagram user that follows you through the Follow Me app. The more users using Follow Me, the better! If you’re picky about who you follow, you can disable the auto follow feature and check the Users To Follow Back page to see what Instagram users have followed you that you have not yet followed back. From this page you can choose who you want to follow and you can follow them back right here too.

Happy exploring!

Lumen Trails GTD Organizer

Normally $19.99.

• Apple “New Year, New You” Favorite
• Apple App Store Staff Favorite

Lumen Trails is an omni tracker. It lets you take notes, make lists and keep track of other things in your life, such as time, workouts, expenses, calories, food, weight, sleep or anything else you can think of. Thousands of people use it every day, and they love it because it truly makes a difference in their lives.

“I’ve been using Lumen Trails for 6 months and continue to love it. One of my most sticky and useful apps ever on my phone.” – David D’Souza

The beauty of Lumen Trails is that you can track absolutely anything. There are tons of other apps that allow you to track one or two things, for example, calories and weight. But what if you decide to track something else? Say, how many cigarettes you smoke as you try to quit, your eating habits or even net worth? Lumen Trails is the app for that!

Instead of having one app for your to-do lists, one for tracking expenses, another one for tracking your weight, you can declutter your home screen and just have one app that does it all.

Designed exclusively for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad, Lumen Trails is incredibly powerful, easy to use, and looks beautiful on the Retina HD Display. It can even backup your data automatically to Google Drive, sync with iCloud, and is fully accessible with Apple VoiceOver in 8 languages. There’s nothing that comes even close to it. And to top it all, your data is not locked on your iPhone. You can export it to Excel or Google Docs!

So what’s truly important to you right now? Your Health? Fitness? Finances? Productivity?

Track it and get things done!

:: Note to iPhone 6 & 6 Plus users

Now you can ask Siri to find information for you and dictate right into Lumen Trails. For example, hold down the Home button and ask Siri: “How many calories are in a chicken sandwich?”. To start dictation, tap the microphone button on your keyboard and just start talking – your words will be turned into text.
