    game dev story 10c?!?!?! BUY BUY BUY BUY BUY BUY BUY

    • Too bad I've already bought the game a long time ago :/

  • Could this be the best deal ever posted? It's a shame I don't currently have an Android, and when I do…I'll just hope for this sale to come back. Maybe 5c an app.

    • +3

      Yup I think this is the best deal ever… At least for Android users.. Getting an Android device soon? If so better try using one of those methods mentioned in the thread on how to collect them first for the future.

      Regarding having a 5 cents promotion, might have to wait till they reach 50 billion downloads.. Which might not be that far ahead after all, with the help of the 10 days apps offer thing :D

  • It's a shame Spirit XHD isn't 10c too. Well worth the full price though, probably one of my all time favourite android games.

    • Wow I didn't know that there's a XHD version!

  • +1

    Yes! Game Dev Story!

  • +1

    Thanks nanoronline. Now I just wish I had a better android device than the optus mytab. Time to look into making it write to the sd card as it doesn't have much space left.

  • +2

    paper camera is quite clever…..

  • BRO it doesn't wna buy :( keeps declining

    • Did you try buying the apps at the same time? Try waiting for a few minutes before downloading the next one?

      • Hey can u plz solve the problem with my samsung galaxy tab 7 an error pops up "an error has occurred pls try it again" can't seem to fix it :(

        • Was the app still installed after you have gotten the error? I remember the only few times I saw that error was in Day 1 when I bought the apps too fast. Try to buy the apps one buy one slowly.

          Try refund if possible after the error and click back to the menu previously and click the app again to purchase.

  • +1

    Today's ones are up! Sweeeeet! Anyone too tight for the 10c can find Jelly Defence FREE on GetJar. ;)

  • "An error occurred while processing your purchase. Please try again later." Any help guys? I've never purchased a single app before. Should I be buying them from the website on my computer rather than the app market itself?

    • Either way is same,
      Just space the purchases apart in time. Sometimes it does cost me 20 cents for an app, not worth haggling as long as I get the apps.

  • +1

    Day 4: = Mostly shit apps

    Baseball Superstars 2011
    Farm Frenzy
    Game Dev Story
    Jelly Defense
    My Beach HD
    Paper Camera >>> Somewhat OK,,,
    Sentinel 3: Homeworld
    Shazam Encore >>> Somewhat OK,,,
    Spirit HD
    Toddler Spanish: 100 Words

    All the rest imho anyway are pretty new or not that popular, Also I'd have loved to see more real Apps not just Games !

    • "Paper Camera"…back by popular demand!
      But really, why did they repeat the same app twice. Either they are running out of good, cheap apps to list or someone in Google's HO stuffed up.

      • Well I hope they do minecraft again! :D
        Ah who am I kidding, of course they won't.

      • yes well at least there are 11 apps today,

        so 10 excluding paper camera. but most of the rest are pretty ordinary, new apps many have only around 1000 reviews / downloads

      • +1

        My Paper Camera purchase failed on the first day due to buying some apps too quickly, so I'm glad I got the chance to get it properly this time.

        • Yeah, same here. But I also got an email from this morning them apologising for my cancelled purchase, and that I could download it for free if I went in to My Apps and whatever else it said. Tried that and it didn't work, so I just went to purchase it again for 10c, but it didn't charge me, so yeah. All good :)

  • Paper Camera again??!

  • Anyone notice the number of 1 star rating for NFS:Shift is almost the same number as it its 5 star rating?
    5 stars = game is awesome, yay!
    1 star = stupid EA, your game is broken and rubbish and not working, want my money back!

  • +1

    Shame the previous days apps haven't remained at the low price.
    On the bright side I'm impressed that you only have to buy one copy per Google account, so it can be installed on multiple devices, great being able to put some of them on my Tab too. Nice to know if I ever consider full price apps in the future.

    • +1

      Yes I love this fact that the Apps are on my Google account forever !

  • +1

    Got GameDevStory and Sentinel3. Both look promising.

  • holy sh1t! this rox

  • +2

    Heres hoping for Out of milk pro, want to get a licence for each of users in the household.

  • +2

    Game dev story - most addictive game ever. Pity I had already purchased it.

  • This is great but my Androids memory is getting near full.

    Whats the easiest way to clear space so I can use them later??
    Or maybe I should ask… how long do I need to have them installed before I can remove them?

    Sorry if this has been covered//

    • If you remove them within 15 mins they get refunded. If you delete them after, they remain on your account. Alternatively, install them on your microsd card if your phone allows.

      • Ah cheers Livert.

        I am using a little Huawei X3 phone with limited memory until Sammy get their act together with the new Galaxy TAB.
        I have had a few Androids in the past and they all show up in my account, which is handy as it allows me to buy apps that the Huawei would not see.

        One more question: do you know what the story is with an app I buy but don't install? I bought a couple "for" my old TAB that I don't have anymore as the X3 couldn't get them.

        Hopefully they will just sit idle in my account.

        • They'll stay on your account for life.

        • Cool.
          I am really just using this phone a s temporary measure.
          Might grab Astro and pull the apks out for later.
          Thx.

  • hoping for MusicLover to be on the 10c list as well just like airsync

  • Is it possible to buy these apps first without an Android device and then load it on to one later?

  • Hmm what's the difference between Shazam Encore and regular Shazam?

    edit: from the shazam FAQ:
    How much does Shazam on Android cost?

    There are two versions of the application on Android Market.

    Shazam – The free* version of the App with unlimited tagging until the 1/1/2012, after which the app will revert to the standard 5 Tags per month. This version of Shazam includes Sponsor messages and advertising.
    Shazam Encore – The premium version of the App with unlimited tagging and additional features priced at £2.99, €3.99, $4.99 USD. Shazam Encore does not include 3rd party advertising.

    *Standard operator data charges apply.

    • Shazam basic limits how many times you can tag a month and Encore is unlimited. In the past, the basic version could do unlimited tags too until they shut it down. Plus there are some additional social features in Encore (somewhat useless) and no ads (somewhat cooler). Well worth the 10c over basic.

  • I'm hoping whatsapp to be also 0.10 soon among Titanium backup pro and widgetlocker. We need more utilities on the list not just games…

    • Isn't Whatsapp free anyway? I didn't pay for it :/

      • +1

        It's free for android for the first year or two, then its subscription based.
        iPhone's whatsapp is a once-off fee.
        Work-around:
        1. Get someone with an iPhone who has got Whatsapp
        2. Delete their Whatsapp
        3. Install from App store
        4. Use your number in their re-installed Whatsapp
        5. Sign in to your number
        6. Your Whatsapp expiry date for your number should be extended now by like 10 years or something :)

        • This is pretty random. But do you play BF3?

        • I do

        • +1

          How about hide and seek?

        • This is an awesome Hack man !
          V Good

  • Just thinkin, what happens when I want to upgrade phones?, can I take the apps with me?
    Also I love the paper camera app, I look good as a cartoon!

    • They're linked to your Google account (this includes your Gmail, youtube, Calendar, Android etc) and when you get a new device, you can reinstall these at any time once you've signed in.

  • What's the difference between Shazam and SoundHound?

    • Very similar. But Shazam is more popular, supported and from my experience, has better tagging accuracy.

      • Thanks, have gotten Shazam too :)

    Word of warning, quite a number of these 'cheap apps' are actually free on getjar. Stuff like Paper Camera, Can knockdown 2, Jelly Defense, just to name a few.
    So check it first! Sure 10c doesn't seem much, but it's infinitely more than 0c!

    • +2

      Also, getjar recently implemented app updates (which is the only reason I bought apps from the market in the first place).

      However, if your like me and prefer all your apps in one place then you can't really go wrong for 10c.

      It's now officially the most popular bargain.

  • anyone got shazam encore working with the acer a500? When I click setup it says it failed to establish a connection… unusable

    • I get that message too. Bit of a bummer.

      Ah well, should work on my SGS2 when I get it next week.

  • hmmmm… only 11 more +'ves till this post is number 1!!

    • +1

      now 7

      this is getting well exciting…………thrilling

    NOW 3!!!! History is going to be made!

    • +4

      Its done, i think jbuultjens did the passing vote. Congrats to nanoronline for beating the Telstra Post.

      • damn, congratulations!
        this 1 will be hard to beat.

      • haha yeah congrats!!!

        awwwww to POWERevolution ;)

      • what was the telstra post?

      • Wow thanks everyone! Most importantly, thanks to Google and the developers that participated in the promotion!

  • +5

    interestingly Asphalt 6: Adrenaline HD is back at $0.10 Either revival of 10c deal or they forgot. Either way still good for people who just found this deal.
    https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gameloft.android.A….

    • is this game any good?

      • it did kill quite some time for me on my ipod touch when the iOS version went free. Dunno if its good on a tablet device thou but about to try (A501).

        • just be aware, there's a 500mb download required

    • In my case, it gives me the opportunity to install the app. (Originally, Gameloft cancelled my purchase). To me, it wasn't a big deal that Gameloft cancelled it because my tablet comes with the game free anyway. But now, I can install it on my phone.

      One very minor issue… Would have preferred Google to send the e-mail notification the same way Apple does - 1 e-mail for a day worth of purchases, rather than 1 per app purchase.

      Asphalt 6 - it is okay. 10 cents.. worth a look.

    • The guys from endomondo pro said "for the next 24 hours and one more day within the next week, the app will be going down to $0.10"

      so obviously they're doubling a few up.

      • I don't think so. For example, Paper Camera repeated yesterday, but there was 11 apps yesterday instead of 10.

        • that means they're doubling up……………

  • Oh my god, how did I miss days 1-3!? :(

    • +1

      Time to make www.ozbargain.com.au your browser startup page / home page (only kidding).

      Still have 7 days remaining.

  • (duplicate post)… someone already posted google offering incorrectly cancelled apps. for free to those who purchased them and got cancelled.

  • +2

    Game Dev Story… that game is crack… or Skyrim…

    Just… one… more… GAME

    • haha i've already put a few hours into game dev story, its pretty cool!!

  • Great apps on offer today!

  • How is SlideIT Keyboard compare to SwiftKey X Keyboard?

    • +3

      Swiper or Typer? :)

      I found it faster, more light-weight but not as good as Swype.

      • +1

        Also depends on your screen size and hardware. Tablet or phone? I bought a stylus for use with my Xoom and I don't know how I got in without it, using stock keyboard.

  • Purchased SlideIT & Pano out of todays 10c deals.

    Don't really have much use for games/wallpapers.

    • SlideIT is not even good. FlexT9, Swype and Swiftkey X are better….

      • +1

        Yeah but I already have Swiftkey & Swype haha

        10c!

  • New to Android.
    Can I purchase it to download on my optus ZTE and then download to my other android device in the future?
    Or is it only limited to that only original device I downloaded onto?
