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 “free,” it is no longer free. The sale has ended. If you download the app, you will be charged.

Normally $1.99.

Use Reverser to quickly and easily make hilarious backward videos. Simply record a new video or pick any video from your library and Reverser takes care of the rest.

Choose slow, normal, or fast speed for existing recordings or reverse them without ever leaving the Photos app by using the Reverser extension.

Save and share the videos you want to keep and delete the rest. That’s all there is to it!

We hope you enjoy Reverser and can’t wait to hear what you think—you can email us from right within the app.

::::

Tips for using the Reverser extension in the iOS 8 Photos app:

– After you save a video reversed with the Reverser extension, you can always press the “Revert to Original” button to restore the unreversed video.
– When using the extension, we recommend keeping the Photos app in the foreground, as extensions aren’t able to do as much background processing as regular apps.
– The Reverser extension reverses all videos at the same speed that they play in the Photos in order to preserve slow-motion edits. User the main Reverser app to choose your own speed.
