Am i the only one who thinks android needs gift cards? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Title says most of it but i think that android/google needs gift cards to boost revenue for the market an now the newly launched Google music not everyone owns credit cards or wants to use them on the market like me i admit i have pirated apps but when i owned an ipod i did not i bought them because of gift cards where so available!

They already exist, they're used with Google Wallet...

Never understood giftcards your trading money for something that don't work as good...

PrinterShare Mobile is free on Amazon's app store today

This app lets you print from your phone. It's normally $13. Here's the link
The reviews for it are great.
glad i seen this thread.. i normally check amazon apps periodically.. but didn't have much intention to check it today, until i seen this title..
thanx for the info
No problem. I figured people here might find it useful.
Great find! Thanks!

Agreed! If it's free, then why is it asking for my Visa Card No. and won't download until i fill out the info?

You obviously dont have an amazon account. The app is free once you register for an account. As long as you dont purchase anything, you wont be charged. Amazon is just as important as the android market to me.

that's the way amazon works. you must set up an account first. the app is free.
Uh, it's definitely not a scam. If it's telling you to pay for it, then you're likely doing something wrong. Amazon posts a paid app for free everyday. Once every week or 2, the app doesn't suck. This is definitely one of those days. If it's not showing free for you, then I don't know what's wrong, but most people have had great luck with it.
The app is free!!! You just have to have an Amazon account. I love Amazon's free app of the day! Sometimes the app is garbage but a lot of times you can get great apps!!! I had a cracked version of a PrinterShare Premium and was stoked to get a legit version for free this morning!! My opinion is that this is the best printer app for Android, I've been using it for around a year and never had a single issue!
Apple Market has a few apps that do a free app of the day but it isn't nearly as good as Android's! I've snagged a few decent free app of the day on my IPod Touch 4th Gen but not nearly as much as i have for Android. Plants vs Zombies, Apps2SD Pro, and Grave Defense HD are just a few of the many paid apps that I've forget gotten free from Amazon.

App is awesome. Definitely works. Good find

Tapatalk client

Does anyone have a decent Tapatalk client to recommend?
For xda the app works just fine, but other forums I am using Convo.
Do anyone have other clients too recommend? I prefer free ones.

good response. Keep it up
I'm using forum runner. There are two different versions one free the other paid. The free app only allows limited functionality. (You can only read the forum, no posting, no PM's, Can't log in, etc.) The paid app on the other hand is $1.99 and you get full functionality. Overall I like it the best because I'm a member of several other forums that are supported by forum runner and I can stay logged in all in one place.
Thanks.. Its limited functionality is a bit too limited..
I'll continue to use convo then..

I was using that on the Evo 3D. But when I switched to the Galaxy Nexus. Get jar would not let me download the app so I brought it from the market.

Yeah...so much for creating a "standard" for mobile payment. No wonder the carriers, like Sprint, pulled out from Google Wallet and joining other standards instead.
So we will never get google wallet?

Most likely because AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile are all working together on their own payment system (ISIS). So, while wallet may be available on Nexus phones in the future, I wouldn't hold my breath for it to become widespread on other carrier modded phones.
So in the meantime does anyone use another NFC capable app for payments? I've seen a couple in the market but haven't tried anything other than installing wallet. Odd that they'd let me install it but then tell me it won't work..most apps seem to only download if they work on a particular phone.
nope Google wallet will die when iris is launched in a few months

For what it's worth, it's not that great of an album. If the price was any higher, it wouldn't be worth it.

True, but also selling 1 million copies to Samsung at $5 a piece makes him a quick $5 mill plus the album goes platinum before being officially released. Don't get me wrong, I like Jay z, but it seems a little shady to force your album to go platinum

He most likely didn't see but 1 million out of that deal if that, the record company will be taking most of the money.

Most artists, yes it would be that way, probably less money than that. Although he does own rocafella records/rocnation, which is his label that he started when nobody wanted to sign him early on. Not completely sure if this new album is in conjunction with universal which has backed him previously. In the end, it doesn't matter how much he makes because he already has a nice chunk of change.
