iPad

If you're an iOS fan, there's a good chance that you've either bought an iPhone 6, are planning to buy an iPhone 6, or are indeed saving your pennies for the imminent launch of the next-generation iPads due later this month. The point here being, of course, that spare change for apps and games might be a little hard to come by at this moment in time, and if you want to save a few bucks this weekend, we've got an assortment of six paid apps gone free.

Earlier on the week, Popcorn Time, the so-called "Netflix of Torrents," finally made its way to iOS, although given Apple's rules on what can and what cannot pass through the App Store's moderation process, its developers could only target the jailbreak community. Many iOS 7 users have held back on updating to iOS 8 in a move to preserve their jailbreaks, and so could take advantage of Popcorn Time's introduction, but for the majority now running on the all-new iOS 8, the haven of free movies is out of bounds. There are, however, alternatives out there, and the one we're featuring here today has the advantage of not requiring a jailbreak, so if you're running stock software, this one may be for you.

The introduction of Notification Center widgets with iOS 8 has brought a whole new dynamic to Apple's mobile platform, and of all the areas of the ecosystem that have been opened up to third parties with the latest software updates, Notification Center widgets appear to be thriving the most during these early stages. We've already seen dozens of great widgets as developers seek to take advantage of what is a brand new category, and here, we feature one of our favorite widgets to have landed so far.

Here are the top 10 best Notification Center widgets for iOS 8 which you should download and install on iPhone right away.
