AppMiner Great Way to Find iPhone Apps, Beats iTunes

Posted in Free, Review, Utility by Mitch on September 13, 2009 1 Comment

AppMiner by Bitrino provides a great way to find Apps. The tabs at the bottom provide easy access to new, sale, top rated, search, and ones you have marked for watching. In new, sale, and top rated you can browse by the usual Apple Appstore categories like All, Arcade, Business, etc. and then subdivide by all, free, and paid. Nothing spectacular there. Where AppMiner shines for me is as a native app that allows you to watch it for price drops to price points you want in $1.o0 increments down to free.

Its clean, simple interface is responsive and provides, where available from the Appstore, the first screen shot image and a link to photobrowser-like viewing of the rest of the images. I give it a huge endorsement not only because it is the best way I have found to discover new apps but it fuels my App Zealotry! AppMiner crushes the Appstore and readily beats Yappler and AppShoper for me. Also of note, AppMiner has a web version that is great too. When I read or hear of an interesting App, I flip to this app and mark it for watch, usually for free but sometimes for any price drop.

For an additional view on AppMiner, see the review at Just Another iPhone Blog. PatrickJ does a good job of comparing it to BargainBin, another Appstore browser/app tracker.
