That’s not really the issue. I do use the Amazon app store but it’s only for the free paid app of the day. If I like it and I see it for a good price on the Android Market I install it there. But there is absolutely no reason to actually BUY apps from the Amazon app store if you don’t need to. The newest versions are always available on the Android Market much sooner.

I know, don’t you have to have the Amazon app store actually on your phone to use them too?

If you buy apps from Amazon and you aren’t buying them on an Amazon device… you are a moron.

Tim,

You know if Lost City is any good? I keep seeing it pop up, but just haven’t got around to buying it.

It freezes every time I open it on my GNex as well. Unfortunately I got it when the price was still $2.99

Sure, sometimes they have some good free productivity apps.

And here I was thinking it was for my birthday a few days ago, never mind not knowing how Amazon got my birth date. How self centered of me!

I purchased Lost City when it was released. Its a bit short, but its worth the price. Free is even better. Fire Maple makes some fun games.

It wasn’t the first free app of the day. I do agree that they need to get PopCap games working with ICS.

PvZ doesn’t work on the Transformer Prime either. I picked it up free as it was the first free app of the day back when the amazon app store first opened. (Take a hint google and let us buy apps for the future), but alas it was not to be as it clearly does not operate under ICS.

Works for about 30 seconds then freezes for me, same with Peggle.
