[Closed] Contest: Win a free copy of Tablified Market HD!

[kamikazebeats]

I read Android Central and XDA. The play store itself is another avenue, but to get the latest scoop, XDA and AC is my default go to locations.

I visit the Amazon store every day to see the faotd and what's new. I also subscribe to android central and others and read daily in Pulse app. Then fire up tablet HD regularly to browse around...

Being new to Android on my EVO phones and now a Nexus 7 I depend on the reviews and recommendations from the trustworthy websites of Android Central, XDA, and Phandroid, usually in that order.

android central reviews of course. also 'other apps from the same developer' is a great way to find more from your favs

To find new apps I usually just look at the trending apps at the Play Store or Appbrain, but now that I have my Nexus 7 I've started to use Tablified Market also, so the pro upgrade would be nice!

Let's see... I find new apps....

1) Amazon AppStore's Free App of the Day. Really, it's about the only thing I do with their store since Amazon's update policy causes apps to lag behind those on the Play Store. However, since I check this daily, it's my first line of discovering new apps -- or at least new crappy, bug-ridden, intrusive, IAP-greedy games...since that's about 95% of the FAOTD offers.

2) Sites like here, Gizmodo and Engadget which regularly or semi-regularly publish "App of the Week" articles.

3) Sales. This usually applies to games, but occasionally other types of apps announce sales and either get featured in the Play Store or get a feature article on one of the above-mentioned sites. I use the Play Store daily as well, but that's usually just to get the nigh-daily app updates. When I remember, I check the front page for deals.

4) XDA Developers Forums. I will occasionally troll the Apps and Themes sections for my devices looking for cool new stuff.

5) Word of mouth. This is practically a last resort. My wife is pretty good about telling me about the latest cute puzzle game for her iPhone...for all the good that usually does me. My Android-using friends are pretty mum about apps. Maybe they're not app junkies like I am?

I just search the play store.

 

[jumboadam]

two ways i find new apps-- android central reviews or the designated section in the google play store for new apps!!

 

[chinita279]

I usually google an app with the functionality that I want and the name of an app usually always comes up

 

[Mechapanda]

i always see apps that other people are using and enjoy myself when i try them.

 

[mitaino9000]

I usually look at sites such as Android Central or from people on G+ for recommendations of apps.

 

[theanghellicone]

i love testing random apps. and anything android central usually gets downloaded immediately

 

[natehoy]

Generally I find an app when I have a problem I think one of my devices can help with, and go searching. However, the various review sites and of course the forums have pointed me to a whole bunch of useful apps as well.

 

[J_rock151#CB]

I always ck right here on Android Central.

 

[RobBryar]

I rely on the Play Store, but for my growing number of tablets its not ideal to find tablet optimized apps for it

 

[dbon12]

Trying to find tablet friendly apps can be a pain in the play store.
Often i rely on customer reviews, website reviews, forums and
news sources to find them. Having a market app just for tablets
would be great and so convenient to use. Hope i'm one of the
winners.

 

[SomeAudioGuy]

I usually find out about new apps here... So maybe you shouldn't let me win because I'd come here less often...

 

[nmc445]

I search the same Android blogs & forums as mentioned above, including Android Central. The Tranformer Infinity is my first tablet, so I'm still learning but excited to see what it can do.

Android Central, Lifehacker and just browsing Google Play..

 

[sakasune]

I had no idea such a thing existed! I usually look for recommendations on sites such as this or Lifehacker.
