Tap Tap Revenge 3, Twitbird, and Flick Tunes are all great and useful apps that belong on your iDevice for a long time. Make sure that you get these great paid apps for free as Christmas presents for yourselves.

Tap Tap Revenge maker, Tapulous, has been reported to make 1 million bucks a month with its Tap Tap Revenge franchise. Now, its latest iteration, Tap Tap Revenge 3 $.99 –> Free (App Store) has its price tag lowered to $0.00 for a limited time. There should be no need to describe its features. Players tap “beats” as they scroll down the screen. There are lots of songs to choose from. The In App purchase feature also allows you to buy and download additional songs.

Why is it Great? It has sold ten of millions of copies. Is there even a reason to ask?

TwitBird Premium (App Store) , previously known as iTwitter, is a great alternative to Tweetie 2 (App Store). It has lots of features Tweetie 2 users enjoy such as geotagging, mentions, and user friendly interface. It even has something Tweetie 2 lacks, push notification. For now push notification requires in-app purchase. But even if you don’t want to pay for push notifications, Twitbird is still a must download for Tweeter fans as a Tweetie alternative.

Twitbird comes in 3 versions: Twitbird, Twitbird Premium, and Twitbird Pro. Their difference lies in the number of twitter accounts the user can use on the app. The regular version only allow one twitter account. The Premium version featured in this article allows 2 accounts. The Pro version allows for more accounts in an app. TwitBird series, including the Pro version, have been priced at free before. The regular version has been priced at free for a few weeks. If you want the Pro version for free, just wait and we’ll announce it as soon as its price is marked down to $0.00.

Why is it Great? Lots of features with a great UI. One of the best iPhone twitter clients out there. Did we mention push notifications?

Flick Tunes (App Store) is an essential app for music fans that want to control their iPod songs and music with a flick of the fingers. It is perfect for changing a song in a car. Just swipe your screen and you can fast forward, rewind, or go to the next song. There’s no more need to take your eyes off the road. Gestures rules.

Why is it Great? This is an awesome feature that should have been included with the iPod user interface in the first place.
