How To Find Free and Cheap iPad Apps

Save Money When Buying iPad apps

Every day more and more iPad apps go on sale in the iTunes app store. Some are from unknown developers and others are from big name developers like EA or Gameloft. The problem is finding out about these sales. You can"t look at every app in the app store every day. This article will give you some tips on finding free apps and apps that go on sale.

Look In The iTunes App Store

One place to start looking for free apps is in iTunes itself. iTunes has a top 50 list of free apps in the Applications section of the iTunes store and in the App Store app on your iPad. It is worth checking out and seeing if there are any free apps you would be interested in downloading. Be aware and warned: a lot of these free apps in the top 50 will let you download the app for free but require payment in order to unlock full functionality.

You can also always check to see if a paid app are looking at has a lite version. Some lite versions are free and complete versions of an app. The only difference is the lite version is ad supported. If you don"t mind ads, lite versions of apps are a good way to save money.

Finally, when looking in the App Store look at the top twenty five or fifty list. When games go on sale they have a good chance of appearing at the top of sales lists as sales are boosted.

Check Websites Dedicated to Apps

There are many websites on the internet dedicated to apps and listing sales and freebies. Three of my favorites are AppShopper, TouchArcade, and AppAdvice.
