Ask HN: Where to Find High-Quality, Free iOS Apps Without Ads or IAPs?

2 points| alexanderklein | 1 year ago | reply

Does anyone know of a place that curates iOS apps that are just... good? Like, no ads, no in-app purchases, and focused on solving one specific problem really well? I’m thinking of those apps built by indie devs or hackers, often to scratch their own itch, not to chase the latest monetization trend. The App Store feels overrun with ad-laden, bloated apps that try to do too much and don’t really nail anything. Would love to find something more pure—any ideas?

I don't know of such place, but sometimes I like to add "open source" in App Store search of search for "iOS open source <app name>" in search. It would be nice to have such a curated website.
