The App Store is a Mess
Reviewing apps — Weekly Blog #1
The app store is a mess. There is no better way to explain it. There are millions of apps and it is nearly impossible to discover new ones. Search is severely broken.
Just try searching for Paper or even Paper Facebook, the new app Facebook launched. The current top results are Paper Toss 2.0 and Paper Toss Friends.
Thankfully, with the help of sites like Product Hunt and my 24/7 use of Twitter, I am constantly finding new apps to try out. I recently created a folder on my home screen of new apps I am trying and thought this was a great opportunity to learn more about product creation and design. I believe that you can’t just use an app for one day and be able to give it fair judgement so thought that I will use 4-5 new apps for a week and create a weekly blog post detailing my thoughts.
I hope this will be a great learning experience to sharpen my product sense and will give you some cool new apps to try out that you would not have found otherwise. Here are a few of the apps that I am checking out this week. First post debuting tomorrow ;)
