We saw plenty of great feedback following yesterday’s list of paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free, and there are even still a few sales in that post that haven’t ended yet, so be sure to check them out. Today, of course, we have a fresh batch of iOS apps on sale. There are eight apps on today’s list and as always, these sales might only last for a few more hours so hurry if you want to save!

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.
