Before the time of the iPhone and Android smartphones, I would have not imagined people would be gungho with buying and downloading apps to their mobile phones.
Before I got the iPhone 3G two years ago, the only mobile app I bought was for a Palm Zire 71 back in 2004.

Today, buying and downloading apps is so common some people make it part of their daily routine. Add to the fact that a paid app could cost just $0.99. I’d like to refer to them as app-whores.
So, anyone out there willing to admit they’re addicted to buying and downloading apps? How much have you spent on apps already?





@abeolandres Can you tweet #HappyBDayBeyonce now please … were celebrating @beyonce 29th B’day today ☺ Thanks & God Bless!
Wala ako pambili kaya sa cracked ipa lang ako at free apps sa itunes
I’ve spent a total of USD 120 over a period of one year.
40% on games, 40% on productivity apps and 20% on travel apps.
i got hooked up since 2008 and my sister too last year. maybe we’re app-whore… hehehehe pero ako i got it from c***a and i******us but my sister bought it legally… hehheh
@abeolandres Yes.
@abeolandres a little. Apps can be addicting. I’ve spent over $50 on them. Games & Productivity apps are the main culprits for my spending.
the paid app i’ve downloaded was just Plants vs Zombies and BillReminder. haha.. i dont spend much time on a smart phone kse. i have my laptop the whole time.
@abeolandres yes! not sure how much i’ve spent on apps but since i started an apps review site last year i’ve kept the costs down somewhat:)
sir yuga never pa aq nakadownload ng paid app sa apple appstore at android market. Puro free apps lang aq. Mas maraming magandang free apps sa android market compare sa apple appstore. D din aq app whore kc wala me pambayad. Kontento na aq sa free apps. hehehe
I have 300 + apps and counting! But im not a whore! Hahaha i prefer to be called an App Hunter
$0
i download the free stuff. haha
and i dont have a credit card.
but if i did have one, i know id be uncontrollable.
ARRR only 6pages of apps in my touch
yes i am an app whore! i buy apps- paid and free. whether in bed when i am about to sleep or when i am mobile or just lounging in my room using my mac, iPad or appleTV and PC. i am such a whore! haha i got 2 accounts @ iTunes app store, Philippines and US.
I used to be an app whore when I was using an Iphone. Even spent $20+ for a management game, and that’s aside from my tv series, movie and music purchases! It took me a year to get over being legit as I feel robbed as time passed. So I went back to my old habit, haha! You know what they say, best things in life are free!
y buy if u can get them for free.. (jailbreak)
how can i buy Apps sa apple app store without using credit card? is there a gift certificate thing i can buy sa istore?

i love apps
i have a budget of $0.99 a month, so one app per month, sometimes i buy the expensive ones like plants vs zombies or angry birds. i have around 100 games, and counting free and paid. paid probably 10-20%?
i visit the app store almost every other day to check what apps are offered for free that are really paid but ‘free for the day’
reason why i don’t jail break: so i can get updates easily/legally. plus $0.99 is just P45, give up I dunno, one order of soft drinks in can in a resto for a month or something, that’s how i ‘justify’ it. i just have to give up something
i convinced a lot of my friends to download plants vs zombies even if it’s $2.99, by comparing it to a Starbucks drink, give up a cup of your coffee/frap, just one cup so you can enjoy the game.
i downloaded the openfeint app and freeappaday so i would know what apps that are normally paid apps are free:D
