Promo apps on Market for $0.10

JSak, you are rooted right? I don't think you bought as many as me but even half of the apps you bought, I don't think an uprooted Desire could hold that many apps.

That's exactly what I was thinking about - Thank goodness I rooted!

I don't think I uninstalled any. My question is, what is everyone's final app count and what is your favourite?

15 for me and probably Sketchbook.
 
at .10c
did not uninstall... i only purchased the ones that looked good...

most i did not even install.. just left it there .. for when I do need it or bored and want to try them

I just wish the Market organize the apps based on the latest download. I have about 130 apps installed :/ I am thinking 50-60 something apps since I downloaded 5-7 a day. Most of the games I downloaded are for my niece and nephew...to distract them when I have to look after them. Only caveat is...they are madly in love with my phone...so it's usually a fight with me to use it.
 
A lot of the stuff in Camera FX it looks like I can do with my stock camera or the feature is coming soon to ICS. I bought it anyway for a dime. I'll toss it on my phone and play with it. Google swung and missed the last 2-3 days. I think Camera FX is the only one I bought in the last couple of days.

Just bought Camera Zoom FX. I was hoping they'd have Vignette instead, lol.

Did anyone get Star Chart? How much better is it than Google Skymap?

So, question of the day. How many of these promotional apps did you uninstall after the 15 minutes refund time?
Mine are as follow:
super ko boxing 2 (no changed since the first one and it got boring fast) , sim city deluxe (got bored with it) and HD widget (widgets were ugly)

Sak, you are rooted right? I don't think you bought as many as me but even half of the apps you bought, I don't think an uprooted Desire could hold that many apps.

All of them. :D I have a OG Droid and I am buying the app for the SGN. Since I only have 50 MB free, I have been uninstalling them all so I have space for the next day. I have been doing this because I lost a few games the first day. I believe it was because I did not let them install first. I got the "Your recent cancelled Android Market purchase attempt" email, so I was able to download them eventually.

I actually uninstalled the Google Maps updates to get more space.

Edit: Sak01, how do you find all of the apps before the market changes the page. I can find a few if I scan the top paid apps, but I won't find all of them, and it would not help with the repeat apps.

haha, very clever of you Jonathan ;) I would be doing the same if I had my Nexus One.

Sometimes they are posted on Phandroid otherwise Hotukdeals.

You got all of them?? My 15 sounds paltry compared to you and Roze. Any favourites?

Same here. I downloaded the games for the nephews and nieces. Except I've got 6 (ignoring the 3 babies) who love and fight over my phone. Whenever they're around I have to say goodbye to my phone and it's battery life :/

I meant find them all, not buy all of them, although I did get about 40-50 of them. I do like Blow Up, Flick Golf, Fieldrunners, Shazam, Reckless Getaway, Apparatus, and Jenga but they are currently not installed. Some others that are installed are SoundHound and FlightTrack, Most of them I have not even used since I have no space.

Game would be Jelly Defense. First Defense game I actually enjoy. Fruit Ninja was another one that I was thinking of buying and only got for 0.10 :)

Utility App would be Edomodo Pro, ezPDF reader, Shazam and Flight Tracker.

haha, ouch. You learn to not take out your phones when the kids are around or go to another room ;)

I bought cameraFX for my SGS2 to notice that it the only thing going for it is the voice command. The UI is not that nice compared to the stock camera and performance is slightly slow since it needs to go back look at the camera settings. Refunded the program. Good thing that I noticed I could pin more shortcuts on the menu bar
 
I bought FlightTrack because it is one of those apps I absolutely love on the rare occassions when I fly. I hate dealing with the Gestapo in charge of security (yeah, I said it.) so I avoid flying in general. When I do have to fly (grandparents live more than 2,000 miles away) apps like FlighTrack are a godsend and make me wonder how I ever flew without them.
 
what is everyone's thought on Booking.com? I don't see much of a 'deal' for the hotels tbh. Reviews are 98% GREAT. I'm not sure if I'm missing out if I don't get it, lol. I want GREAT deals on hotels.
 
Alright Sak, where's the morning list to the last day of the $0.10 apps? AC and Phandroid don't have 'em up yet.
 
Got Sketchbook Mobile for the promo. Pretty amazing little app! Lots of grown-up fun for me and lots of fun time with my little boy drawing.

Now, where's the SketchUp Mobile app Google?????????????????
 
Most of the 10 cent apps were free at Amazon at one time or other, I had most of the ones I wanted. The 1 app I did buy is Zoom FX, it's MUCH better than the native camera on my Galaxy Player!
 
I bought 12 all together and have a feeling that Camera Zoom FX will be one of my faves, also really enjoying ADW :)
