Title: Best iPhone and iPad Apps on Sale Through the Holidays Post by: HCK on December 29, 2016, 04:05:09 pm Best iPhone and iPad Apps on Sale Through the Holidays
Today marks the first day of Apple's annual iTunes Connect holiday shutdown (http://www.macrumors.com/2016/11/29/itunes-connect-holiday-shutdown-2016/), meaning the App Store (http://www.macrumors.com/roundup/app-store/) will be void of any new or updated apps between now and Tuesday, December 27. In the meantime, iPhone and iPad users have plenty of time to capitalize on holiday sales for a number of popular apps. <img src="(http://cdn.macrumors.com/article-new/2016/11/alto.jpg)" alt="alto" width="100" height="100" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-535062" /><strong>Alto's Adventure</strong> $3.99 → 99 cents iPhone and iPad AppShopper (http://appshopper.com/games/altos-adventure) | App Store (https://itunes.apple.com/app/altos-adventure/id950812012?mt=8) Editor's Note: A beautiful endless runner with procedurally generated terrain based on real-world snowboarding. <img src="(http://cdn.macrumors.com/article-new/2016/12/day-one.jpg)" alt="day-one" width="100" height="100" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-540226" /><strong>Day One</strong> $4.99 → $2.99 iPhone and iPad AppShopper (http://appshopper.com/lifestyle/day-one-2-journal-notes) | App Store (https://itunes.apple.com/app/day-one-journal/id1044867788?mt=8) Editor's Note: A popular journaling app for capturing everything from once-in-a-lifetime events to everyday moments. <img src="(http://cdn.macrumors.com/article-new/2016/12/tweetbot.jpg)" alt="tweetbot" width="100" height="100" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-540230" /><strong>Tweetbot</strong> $9.99 → $4.99 iPhone and iPad AppShopper (http://appshopper.com/social-networking/tweetbot-4-for-twitter) | App Store (https://itunes.apple.com/app/tweetbot-4-for-twitter/id1018355599?mt=8) Editor's Note: A popular Twitter app with granular mute filters, support for multiple accounts, timeline syncing across iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and more. <img src="(http://cdn.macrumors.com/article-new/2016/12/djay-pro.jpg)" alt="djay-pro" width="100" height="100" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-540234" /><strong>djay Pro for iPad</strong> $19.99 → $9.99 iPad AppShopper (http://appshopper.com/music/djay-pro) | App Store (https://itunes.apple.com/app/djay-pro/id1056681903?mt=8) Editor's Note: A popular app for DJs that integrates with your media library and Spotify. 2016 Apple Design Award Winner. <img src="(http://cdn.macrumors.com/article-new/2016/12/byword.jpg)" alt="byword" width="100" height="100" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-540238" /><strong>Byword</strong> $5.99 → $2.99 iPhone and iPad AppShopper (http://appshopper.com/productivity/byword) | App Store (https://itunes.apple.com/app/byword/id482063361?mt=8) Editor's Note: A popular app for writing with text-to-HTML tool Markdown (https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/). <img src="(http://cdn.macrumors.com/article-new/2016/12/duet-display.jpg)" alt="duet-display" width="100" height="100" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-540248" /><strong>Duet Display</strong> $19.99 → $9.99 iPhone and iPad AppShopper (http://appshopper.com/productivity/duet-display) | App Store (https://itunes.apple.com/app/duet-display/id935754064?mt=8) Editor's Note: Turn a plugged-in iPad or iPhone into an extra display for your Mac or PC.
