[review] MyMarket {update 8/10}
Hello community I'm back once again bringing you yet another notable app.
NAME- MyMarket
PRICE- Free
This app is an alternative to the app market that comes with them phone. To be honest i havent played around with this app a lot, but it is a very straight forward app and something that should have come with the phone in the first place.
When you first open the app it is a very familiar look except it is missing the "search" and "my downloads" tabs. In their place are the "bookmarks" and "removed" tabs that are very useful!
Press the menu button and it will bring up 2 options.
The filter option is one of the best features of this app. We all know how flooded the market can get with themes, soundboards and so on, well this app does a great job at filtering apps that you do not want to see.
It actually comes preset with "themes" and "soundboards" filtered with the option to filter out widgets.
When you click on "add new" it will bring up the option to filter by developer or title
I chose developer because i remember this developer that goes by "browser" that only posts shortcuts to websites NOT REALLY AN APP so i filtered them out
So on to the actual market. The version on this app and the actual market place is virtually identical.
Navigating through this app is the same as the market but when you find an app you like a short click brings up the individual app menu.
A long press will take you to the actual market so you can download the app. YOU CANNOT DOWNLOAD DIRECTLY FROM THIS APP
the options are:
~recommend
~bookmark
~Share
~remove
Recommend
I really havent found what this option is actually used for.
Bookmark
This is a very cool option. You see an app that you like but don't really want to download the app at the time. You can bookmark it and track its progress
so next time you open the app you can go into the bookmark tab and check all your bookmarked apps (i only bookmarked one for the sake of this review)
Share
This option also comes in handy when you want to share an app with a friend. All you do is click the little envelope and it will open gmail to compose an email to your friend, family, etc.
Remove
This option is self explanatory, if you don't like an app and u don't want to see it again all you do is click the "x" and it will be gone.
One thing i didnt like about this app is when you long click an app to download and then go back to "MyMarket" it wont remember the place you were at, so it will start you back at the very top!
Without a downloads section i dont think "MyMarket" will ever replace the real market, i really need my apps up to date.
UPDATE 8/10
v0.9.4:
-bookmarks are now saved on your sd card
-fixed recommending via email Still dont know how to use the recommend feature
-displays if items are installed
Summary
This app is a must have if you like customizing stuff to your liking. The options on this market are what the real market should've come with, but it still has wrinkles to work out for this to replace the real market.
PROS
-ability to bookmark apps
-filter apps
-share apps
CONS
-cant download directly from the app
-no downloads section
-doesnt remember where u were when going from market to market
-no search
4/5 STARS
