Tips on downloading Apps for your iOS Device

Some of us do pay the hefty price just to pay an app on iTunes and some of us do resort on jailbreaking so to download your choice of apps with paying a cent. Based on my experience, jailbreaking has been cumbersome for me since Apple always update the iOS version and there are times the iOS device that I am using showed some performance problems. This is not discourage those of you who are really into jailbreaking but to give some of you some tips about getting your choice of apps in general.

1.) If a premium or paid app has a free lite version, you should try that out before deciding on purchase the full version.

2.) If a premium or paid app has a free, ad-supported version with all the basic functionalities as with the full version and your not bothered by the ads within the app then it's better to download free version.

3.) If you are afraid to use your credit card in purchasing apps then you can use Debit cards as long as it is a VISA or a MasterCard card. Here in the Philippines, you can use Unionbank's EON card when purchasing your apps. If you have Paypal you can transfer funds from Paypal to Unionbank and use the funds on purchasing the apps.

4.) Quality productivity apps like To-Do apps or Note apps are much better purchased than acquired via jailbreak methods as these app often update more than the other apps. Premium game apps on the other hand are much better acquired via jailbreak method since these users don't usually stick to one game for a long time and there will always a new trend of games coming in.

5.) Use apps like AppAdvice or BargainBin that tracks sales or price drops of other apps. These come in handy specially if there's a limited time offer on some of your favorite apps.

Bargain Bin app Review

I previously blog about Pandora Box a free that tracks paid apps that that becomes free or are put on sale by the developers and then comes Bargain Bin. The Bargain Bin app has the same function as Pandora Box with a better user interface since all the apps are organized based on their categories and you can also track any app that you want and alerts you if the app was put on sale or it become free (for a limited time or permanently).

FreeAppAlert: Paid Apps that becomes Free

If you chanced upon an app at the App Store that had a price tag you can’t afford and would love to be informed if the app’s price decreases then Free App Alert is the place for you. The site checks the App Store regularly for the prices of the apps available. What’s so great about it? Well here you can find which ones of the apps have gone from paid to free. These might include full apps or simple promos that let you get a feel of what the app is like. Pretty useful and fills the void for all those iPhone/Ipod Touch owners who needed a place or should I say a directory for free apps.
