Is this legit?
Yes Sir! We've gotten contracts signed with all of these developers, and we've gotten the apks directly from them.
I would get these, but the getjar website is too bad to use.
How is GetJar about app updates? Amazon Appstore isn't great about them.
I already have any of those apps that I would have wanted because I got them free from Amazon already. Any compelling reasons to switch to GetJar versions over Amazon versions?
Correct, our update is not up to snuff at the moment. We've got some great things in our road map, hopefully by the end of the year.
The only real compelling reason to download these versions is that we actually pay the developer per download. We've signed a contract, and they know how much they'll be receiving before we let people download it.
i really like swiftkey x. nano panda is a pretty fun game, if a bit frustrating.
It's so hard! I have to put it down every couple of minutes.
I tried to download swiftkey x but every time I try to download it says device not recognized. I press android and it simply returns me to the home page in an infinite loop.
Downloaded most of the gold apps, swiftkey is now my favourite keyboard, and age of zombies is a blast. Doesnt seem to be any catches so far either, didnt have to put any details in, dont have to download a 3rd party marketplace or anything. Thanks for this.
You're welcome. 5 new apps every Wednesday!
So far, the swiftkey x download is alright. No issues, not a virus as far as I can tell. Seems legit. BUt I agree, terrible to use website.
The catch. What is it?
Yeah, this seems too good to be true
No catch. It's a pilot program to increase our Android traffic. We've gotten signed contracts with all of the developers featured, and we actually pay them.
I see, thanks for the reply. Is the promotion over then? I can't see any free paid apps anymore.
