I downloaded Quickpic.The two apps I can't use, Quickpic and ES File Explorer, are because of Kit Kat, not the G3 itself. All the other apps I used on my LG Optimus G work on this phone, and work faster and look better.

Methinks LG should've done something like what Apple does for iPhone apps on the iPad, and added a zoom-ey thingy. So a non-QHD app would work. Ideally, Google would've done that, but LG could too.
Really missing ESPN Sportcenter as well. Doesn't seem like you can download the app at all. Saw some posts where you can add an alternative early version and someone mentioned you can get it off the Amazon App store. But seems like something that they would work out fairly quickly. I was a little nervous about going to the G3 from the Nexus, particularly about getting 5.0 or Android L someday...Hoping that delays on apps aren't another factor where LG doesn't have the market share and clout to get other parties to move.
And the apps would have probably looked like crap, just like the apps from the lazy developers who won't update their apps to be optimized for the iPad look. Sure they zoom but they are all fuzzy and pixelated. Facebook is the worst offender. They refuse to optimize their new apps (Mentions, Paper) for iPads.

I realize it'd look bad, but I may argue it's better to have the app working in some way, than not have it at all. Could even have a disclaimer saying "This app isn't meant for this resolution, so it may look funny", as QHD is just 4x the resolution square, it should translate without border bars afaik.
Bless this post!ESPN, Amazon, Redbox & others can be downloaded/installed from the Amazon app store. Here's the link to the apk:
