There are a number of holiday app sales now running as mobile developers slash prices in hopes of reaching potential customers who will soon be unwrapping smartphones for Christmas. But one of the better promotions, starting today, is called “App Santa” and involves a group of indie developers behind some of the most popular applications on the iOS and Mac App Stores. The group, which includes apps like Launch Center Pro, Star Walk, PCalc, Day One, Clear, Tweetbot for Mac, Scanner Pro, Drafts 4 and several others, is offering discounts of up to 80 percent on their apps through December 26.
The list includes nearly two dozen of the better-designed paid applications on the App Stores, which is why it’s a notable sale. And because the developers are working together on the promotion, you’re able to easily browse all the apps on one dedicated page that links to each app at its discounted rate on either the iOS or Mac App Store.
In some cases, you may only be saving two or three dollars, but other apps are discounted as much as five or six dollars.
This is the third year that App Santa has run, and it’s been getting easier to organize now that all the developers realize the sale is worth running, we’re told.
App Santa officially goes live today at 10 AM Pacific, and will run through 12:01 AM on December 26th. The full list of participating apps is below:
