thanks for the reminder! it's friday! looking forward to a 3-day weekend!

I missed it

Don't worry, you didn't miss much. I normally wouldn't complain about something free, but since I've paid for a couple Concrete card games in the past, I'll just say that they've all been disappointing. I wouldn't pay for any of their stuff again. The stock solitaire is much better than the equivalent game (klondike). The on-screen controls on all their games are horrible. It's really hard to select the right card to shift around, and the scrolling action is terrible.

Coming to Amazon in the next two weeks. Will be a "free app of the day" on the day it is released:

I freely confess to being a "free app of the day" junkie. It's practically the first thing I do after my morning shower.
Thanks for the heads up
Hell yes! I've already baten PvZ on three platforms already, why not another? lol

Agreed, it's the first thing I do when I wake up, though some of the apps aren't worth the effort (task pad had awful reviews).

Thanks for the heads up, bud! I've been waiting for PvZ to hit Android for ages. Quite frankly, I'm surprised it took them this long to get it out, considering how much money the title has made across all of the platforms (I know I have it on PC and iPod). Can't wait...plus it's free, you can't beat that!

I tend to skip a lot of the offerings, but I've gotten some great stuff because of FAOTD... stuff like Beautiful Widgets Pro, Business Calendar, and tons of awesome games I wouldn't otherwise have gotten (Grisly Manor, Pool Break Pro, Air Control...).
this is really awesome!

If only there was a way to automatically grab the app of the day. Just in case you forget or, gasp, had no Internet access!

it seemed that the app doesn't allow me to get anything from it as my region is not available. Anyway around this?

I used to get apps through appbrain market/fast web installer. You may want to try to get the region changing app through it.
What app should this be?
It's an american nook, with an american rom. So it should be Region America.
I have read that Amazon is checking the ip adress.
The only solution wold be a working orbot.
Happy happy joy joy
I'm a free app junkie as well... plus a plants vs zombies junkie. I put it away after I earned all of the achievements on the Steam version. Looks like I have to earn them all on the Android version now.
Happy happy joy joy!
This is sweet, I've been waiting for PvZ for Android system. Can't wait to get it
There's been a chinese version bouncing around but it has a tendency to crash, not to mention not looking particularly spectacular.
Gotta love Amazon's free app a day. I've been looking for a replacement for stock's Aces Bubble Popper app and today it's free on Amazon
Is there a list somewhere of what's coming up as a free app, or is it a surprise every day? (was hoping it was like their previewable goldbox Today's Deals for regular merch)

I think it's a suprise, to keep you checking in. This morning I literally launched the Amazon App Store as soon as I woke up, LOL!
How can I download from Amazon's store ?
I've downloaded and installed store.apk of Amazon , but when I click on "get app" , It annouced "...not for your region" .
May 30th and still no PvZ. It would have been nice if it came out today. Could have spent Memorial day playing. Man am I gonna be tickednif its not out tomorrow.
Well, it's out. It is tablet optimized. Runs great under CM7 (Phiremod).
(edit: according to the official description, PvZ is not tablet optimized. Still, you'd never guess that from playing it. Looks and plays great on a Nook Color. Like it was written for the platform)
ooh yeah, PvZ on my nook is nice, it being free makes it so much better!

F*CK Robo Defense, FIELDRUNNERS HD on Andriod! FREE

Fieldrunners on android! finally! ok not free only 99 cents still a win
http://www.droidgamers.com/index.ph...utm_campaign=Feed:+droidgamers+(Droid+Gamers)
They can't change a free app to paid on the Market, so now instead of being free the 1st 24hours, it's going to be .99 cents then up to the 2.99 regular price.
should just make it amazons app of the day.
I'm excited! This was one of my fav games on my iPhone before it got 5 finger discounted off me.
Can't wait to play it on a 4.3 inch screen. Bring it, well worth 2.99 and glad to pay .99

It's not free anymore. Anyways, is there a way to get these games for free onto our device. This is my first android. I haven't done research yet so I'm hoping someone can give me some insight, I'm being lazy again. I'm not cheap just broke, haha. (OK I'm cheap too)

Just search for the app name with apk after it on Google or get 4shared from the market
Don't call me cheap I have bought apps before...

LoL it cracks me up how people will spend hundreds of dollars on these smartphones, screen protectors, expensive cases, insurance over the course of a contract hundreds more. As soon as you ask them to pay $.99 to support a dev giving them an app to enjoy in this case(or better their experience with system apps)it is all of a sudden too much to ask.
THERE ARE THOUSANDS of free games and apps if you can no longer afford a few dollars every so often stick to those.

It costs developers time and money to produce an app. Why is it wrong for them to ask for a small fee? People don't want ads, but then complain when a developer wants to put out an ad free product at a nominal price. And what you were talking about in your previous post is piracy. I understand not having money. In that case if you don't have the money to buy something don't, but also don't think that makes stealing it ok.

It affects all of us.
Regardless, use common sense. Do you really think going to a DEVELOPER SITE and asking to pirate apps is a good idea?
Not to mention against the rules
Via my HTC Shooter
Pirating these games is just assholish if you ask me. Just pony up the 99 cents.
So none of you pirate videos, music, software, games or anything like that then do you. If you do, don't say its different because its not, your a hypocrite. I do donate to ROM developers on here, nothing huge, usually $5.
Also, maybe i should specify that I don't care for the games they have on the app store. I would prefer PS1 games or if possible PSP games. Maybe that will change your minds, I got rid of robo defense right away and I dont want this fieldrunners game. I dont do angry birds or any of those, so sorry I wasn't clear, but I bought my fair share of PS games and I feel I can get them back on my phone for fun.

No, I don't. Besides, you run a much greater risk of picking up some malware or something with those stolen apps you find.

Just a word to wise, asking how to get free paid apps on a Developers site is an instant flame.
Cmon man, you're a Senior member!!!
Honestly, its just $0.99. Give up a cheeseburger or fries for one day and you get the real deal.
I admit I pirated a couple of apps, BUT I do eventually buy them to get the updates or if I use them more than a day or two.
Im not really keen on paying $5 for something ill only use once, or god forbid 16 minutes. A lot of apps I noticed are fighting piracy buy selling a key or license to unlock the full version. That's fine with me.
I agree people have money for internet and cell phones but wont pony up a dollar for a game. I think you need a job or go back to school to get your life together.
What part don't you guys get, I don't want the $.99 cent apps. I read they have older PS1, Nintendo etc games that have been converted to play on phones. I also seen it on the apps store to get the downloads for $4.99 but to me that seemed odd. The app wasn't for the games but for an app to DL the games. I thought I was clear I didn't want this app so for people to continue to say $.99 I don't get it. Also, if you think I care about flame then your wrong. I'm helpful to people, and mean to those who are arrogant, so if you think I'm being arrogant then it doesn't bother me at all if your hating on me. We all have opinions, I'm asking for an answer and the smartest on i got besides the .apk one, was about the viruses.

In addition to the free games, Gameloft is also having a $0.99 sale on all their games for Android. Every single one. You can only access the sale by going to Gameloft’s special link found here. You’ve only got five days to download and save
Here is the link for the $0.99 games.

So are they going to send out stuff On both facebook and twitter or just one at a time?

Same here...tried to get it for about 5 minutes and then realized it's not worth my time anymore. Came back here to ***** about Gameloft's crap site. Go to the site on your mobile device and it's not even optimized for mobile browsers. Stupid company.
I purchased Lets Golf2 so my kid would have a decent game to play when I need to keep her occupied lol. I went through the "enter your model" steps and paid via paypal ... transaction was successful. However when I click on the download button i get a message that some sai.sprintinstaller.com or something is currently unavailable. Did i do something wrong? Could this be because my phone is rooted and running a custom rom? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

wait what rom are you using that could be the problem since some Devs remove bloat and that may have been under bloat
I am running Viper Rom but have removed extra stuff that viperboy left in it ... i bet thats my problem.
Any idea how come when i go to buy a app for 99cents, I go to pay on Bill, it says it can't process it so I got to pay with my pay pal, and it says its charging me the full $4.99! If I continue with the buy will it change to 99cents?

Humble Indie Bundle Android!

Pay what you want for Osmos, Anomaly, and Edge. If you pay over the average which I believe is $5.65 you get World of Goo as well.
This is an awesome deal and it benefits a couple of charities as well.
These are direct downloads not through the android market.
http://www.humblebundle.com/
how would updates work if they are just sending you the apk?
do they provide updated apk's?
just curious as i haven't used it before.
EDIT: looks like they do provide an update.
hmm, i might just do this!
Done, I've been supporting the Humble Indie bundle for a couple of years now. Love it.
Btw you get both the regular version of osmos as well as the HD version for tablets.
I loved Osmos on my macbook when it first released, but it just works so beautifully on a touchscreen.
Such a wonderful game.
I got it just for Osmos HD. It's awesome on the Prime. Thanks again!
Best net speed Cheacker
which the best site to check our Internet speed.
Just bought from Humble Bundle for the 1st time and will be doing so in the future without a doubt; its a really cool/creative concept to get people to donate to help charities and devs. Anomaly looks pretty sick, though I haven't tried it out yet, but I found out after donating, though it says mobile version, when I downloaded Anomaly to my Prime it was the HD version for tablet.
Just a note for people looking but unsure as to how it works. When you purchase on the website it not only gives you a web link for the apks but also all the games can be downloaded on to any pc os. So your basically getting 8 games at what ever price you want to pay
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Doh! I just bought Osmos HD in the market this afternoon...oh well, buying the bundle anyway! haha
the game from the bundle aren't market compatible though, are they? so no automatic updates?

not automatic, but they state that they will provide updated apk's on their site.
does anyone have weird freezes with anomaly HD?
it plays for a bit and then the screen freezes and shakes, but the game still runs underneath.
gonna try to wipe and reload as shadowgun is also giving me the same issue.
edit: so a wipe fixed it, i swear, gamestop does something to screw up these tablets, the first one i had from them also worked much better after a wipe.
Even if they arnt compatible im still very happy i got this. Didnt realise they were doing the android versions on the bundle! Bought one before, but this was early days. Always supported this as its a brilliant way to promote Indie games, yet at the same time raising money for charity.
Thanks for sharing
For those wondering about getting future updates, it appears that they are developing an android app that could notify you of updates and make the process simple (app market-esque?).

Regardless, last night I dl'ed and played all three of the new games.
Osmosis - my favorite, beautiful and fun.
Anomoly - like the spin on the "reverse tower defense" i will enjoy playing this game.
Edge - I keep falling off the edge, the movements don't seem to do what I tell them to. Not my thing.
Well worth a few bucks,
