So Many Apps, So Little Time

I joined the ranks of the iPhone snobs (even spelling it as Apple wants me too) back in February and I have since added countless Apps that I have either used once or perhaps never used at all. Regardless, it’s an addictive practice and every time I’m stranded in a waiting room, I’m thrilled I have Alive4Ever or FlightControl on my iPhone. Thankfully, two great web sites (which I discovered thanks to slickdeals.net) make the app addiction a little easier to feed.

AppShopper.com

AppShopper.com is probably the most all-encompassing app site that I have come across, giving you very clear direction to apps recently reduced in price, Newly Free Apps and does so in a very uncluttered, easy to understand manner. Click on an app and you’ll be directed right to the iTunes page that lets you purchase it, all very simple and worth a visit.

If you are so inclined (covert nerd that you are), there are RSS feeds available so that you can receive updates on price changes, new apps and the like directly to your chosen RSS reader. That’s a little too involved for my taste, but the more compulsive Apple addicts among you might find that just right.

FreeAppAlert.com

To strip the AppShopper concept completely down, FreeAppAlert gives you only a streaming blog of apps that have recently been reduced to free. As many app developers use the tried and true “free for a limited time only” trick to drum up buzz around their app, there is no shortage of recent price drops to post.

Now I get that compulsively checking a stream of Newly Free apps just to save typically, $1.99 or $2.99, might strike some as a gigantic waste of time, but as we all know, “free” is a potent mistress.

As I’m on seven pages of apps at this point, these two sites probably aren’t going to help de-clutter my iPhone, but the Great Clips waiting area is a bleak place. Have to break up the monotony somehow. Best of luck with your own iPhone addiction.
