Best Free iPhone Apps

We have had some great lists of paid iPhone and iPad apps on sale for free so far this week — hurry up and you can still get some of yesterday’s apps for free — and now it’s time to celebrate hump day with yet another batch of paid iOS apps on sale for free. We’re all trying to save up as much money as possible as Black Friday 2014 approaches, and snagging a few nifty paid iPhone and iPad apps for free is a good way to do it.

As always, make sure you hurry and grab everything you see here before these limited-time sales are over.

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.
