App Popular 1.2 Offers Free Marketing to iPhone App Developers

Los Angeles, CA    Feb 04, 2010 in Productivity

[prMac.com] Los Angeles, California - App Popular, LLC today is pleased to announce the launch of a new "Promo Codes Stream" section inside App Popular 1.2, a free iPhone and iPod Touch application available exclusively from the Apple iTunes App Store. This new feature lets users with a United States iTunes account (on a first come, first serve basis) receive free downloads of paid iPhone applications. iPhone developers may submit a minimum of five (5) promotion codes for their paid apps and in exchange receive a week's placement in this segmented data stream free of charge. Their app placement will move from the top of the stream down based on listing time. Interested developers may check out the promo codes submission form for additional details.

"We are excited to provide a no-cost marketing opportunity for developers to share their paid apps with the tens of thousands of App Popular members who are passionate about iPhone apps," says John R. Haigh, co-founder. "Additionally developers may freely tag their applications with keywords and phrases inside App Popular to further their app's discoverability."

Also with this latest iteration, one tap from the main menu lets users query an advanced search of the entire App Store with a new custom search engine that complements normal store search results and includes price filter options. The "My App Lists" section has been improved to allow for easier list viewing and alert badges have been added to "My Tracked Apps" helping users keep track of apps that have experienced recent price changes.

Created by Haigh and developer Nikita Logachev, App Popular lets users easily browse any of the world's 77 App Stores by country and category, and includes social networking utilities to share apps via email, Facebook and Twitter. Users can create and share custom app lists, wish lists and lists featuring their favorite and least favorite apps. To promote favorites and help guide their network of colleagues, friends and family, users can add short comments to their app selections. At any time these lists can be edited, saved or shared. Default lists are "My Top Picks," "My Worst Picks" and "My Wishlist." App Popular also uses these member default lists to create "Top Member Picks" and "Most Wished For Apps".

App Popular utilizes Apple's iPhone OS 3.0 push notification service to help users monitor App Store price changes and save money. Push notifications are currently available only for apps downloadable worldwide. Additionally users can track the world rank an app currently holds in the Top 100 for any category/country combination and the data updates eight times daily. To alert users to deals and trends throughout the day, the application also offers a "What's Hot App Stream" to view price changes of currently ranked apps, new #1 rankings, apps entering and leaving the top 10 and updates to "Top Picks by Members". The stream currently tracks the United States & United Kingdom's (Free & Paid) "Top Overall," "Top Grossing, and "All Games" categories.

With convenient access to all 77 App Stores and the chance for users to share newfound apps, App Popular, LLC, offers a wider exploration of the app universe. Whether users are addicted to the App Store or just obsessed with international trends, App Popular can help them unearth, stumble upon and save money on the apps they want, or don't even yet know they want.
