There’s nothing like a bunch of paid apps that can be grabbed for absolutely free at the right time, so if you were looking to go Mac app hunting this weekend, you may want to check out our rundown of some of the best Mac titles that can be grabbed without spending a single dime.
xScan ($9.99 – FREE / Mac)
This brilliant app serves that particular purpose of helping users monitor the performance and health of their Mac. You can monitor the temperature and behavior of processors along with various system vitals. The app also detects all hardware and hard drive failures.
PDFEncryptTool ($0.99 – FREE / Mac)
This nifty and no-nonsense app will let you protect your PDF files with a password. Users will be able to restrict others from reading or editing the PDF file or even extracting content from it while also preventing printing.

Wikipedia access has never been this easy. Sporting a minimalistic interface, users can access and view articles in resizable tabs which can be called from the Mac’s menu bar. The app also lets you alternate between mobile mode and desktop mode as well.
( Super ) Audio Record Pro ($6.99 – FREE / Mac)
With this app running on your Mac, you will not only be able to record audio from your microphone, but also from any application or online source. If your Mac can play it, this app will record it. This can prove to be a handy tool for musicians, so download away!
