Apps Gone Free

Every day hundreds of paid apps are discounted or made free for a limited time. You can use any of the sites below to track and find these apps.
App Store - Free App Tracker - Free app that tracks discounted or free apps.

@TCEA - The Texas Computer Education Association twitter account features almost daily free apps geared toward education. They’ve also compiled this extensive spreadsheet of ed apps.

#edapp - Another twitter resource for finding ed apps and discounts.

Technology in Special Education - Often features discounted and free apps for special education

Moms with Apps - Another good site for finding free and discounted apps

Tony Vincent’s blog post - recommendations on how schools should handle free and discounted app purchases.

"Often apps are offered for free for a limited time. You can find out about these deals by searching Twitter for #edapp and using sites like FreeAppAlert and AppShopper. When downloading free apps, educators should document that the app was free. This way if the app does become a paid app in the future, there is proof the app was properly acquired."
