t's that time again—when we discuss not only the most-downloaded and most popular apps in the app store, but the ones we like the best too.  So which ones sold the most? Which games made the top list of free apps? And which ones can't we stop clicking into? Find out here. Here's our list of apps for July 16-20, 2012.

Top Paid Apps
This week's top paid apps are all the same apps as last week, so we'll talk about the top 6-10 apps instead of the top five.
Number six is MyCalendar Mobile, which is just another way to keep all of your birthdays, contacts, and appointments in check. We can't understand the need for multiple calendar apps, but we suppose some people may want to keep separate listings for some reason.
Seven, eight, and nine are all games: The Heist, Angry Birds Space, and Minecraft Pocket Edition.
Tenth place goes to Camera+, which is an app that elevates your iPhone's camera quality. TIME says, "If the iPhone's standard camera is like a digital point-and-shoot, the Camera+ app is like a high-quality SLR lens."

Top Free Apps
This week's free apps are all games. First place goes to Pyramid Run, which sounds like it's a lot like Legends of the Hidden Temple. Second place is the iPhone's version of Guess Who?, Guess the Character. Third place is Tap Tap Revenge, which was featured on our list last week.  Fourth place is a game called TowerBloxx 3D, which is a game where the object is to stack as many buildings on top of one another without them toppling over. Finally, we have Matching with Friends, presented by game-giant Zynga.  This is a matching game in which you need to line up three or more of the same block to get a match. The person with the most points wins.
