The 50 mobile apps that made the cut for this list of the best free iPhone apps have shown outstanding performance, or have been well received by a wide variety of users, and are free. Here, "free" means free. No gimmicks, no "membership required." Free. Period.
While there are plenty of best-in-class free apps, many more are duds, and you don't want to waste your time deciding which is which. We at PCMag sort through hundreds of apps a year(thousands if you count those we check out for reference but don't actually review) looking for those special apps that work well or accomplish some feat you didn't even know you needed done, but also don't cost a dime.
Missing from this list are apps and features that come pre-installed on the iPhone, although they are certainly not to be ignored. In particular, Apple's apps for iTunes, Music, and the App Store typically see a great deal of well-deserved usage. But you technically paid for them because you bought the phone, so they're not really free, are they? In any case, you don't need to choose to download them, so we're not listing them here.
Games aren't heavily featured on this list in part because a lot of the best ones aren't free. For more iPhone game recommendations, including paid apps, see The 30 Best iPhone Games.
