[android-developers] Amazon Appmarket is now open!
To those who have submitted apps to Amazon how long did it take between submitting and approval?

Re: [android-developers] Amazon Appmarket is now open!
It varies. When I was first submitting last year, it was a fairly quick turn around...say a week, week and half. Currently it appears the turn around is more in the 1-3 week time frame.

Oh, and it never hurts to send them an inquiry after a week or so has passed. They are very responsive! On Wed, Mar 23, 2011 at 1:06 PM, Justin Giles jtgi...@gmail.com wrote: It varies.

Re: [android-developers] Amazon Appmarket is now open!
The Amazon Appstore for Android is not yet available in your region. Beside the small problem I can not install an app it looks great! My first impression is very positive.I like the user interface on the phone and on the website. Now the Android Market sucks even more. 2011/3/22 Zsolt Vasvari zvasv...@gmail.com I have one word to sum it up as: Hooray!! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Amazon Appmarket is now open!
Awesome! Or maybe not awesome...they have a Test Drive Now feature that opens up a web based emulator to run your app for 30 minutes as a trial. Don't know how I feel about this.

Re: [android-developers] Amazon Appmarket is now open!
I really don't like _how_ you have to get the Appstore app itself. I suppose that's because it's an Appstore within the Market itself. Asking users to enable unknown sources doesn't seem like a good idea. I bet my mom would be confused as hell over this. -- Chris Stewart http://chriswstewart.com On Tue, Mar 22, 2011 at 9:03 AM, Marcin Orlowski webnet.andr...@gmail.comwrote: On 22 March 2011 13:43, Justin Giles jtgi...@gmail.com wrote: Awesome!

I just looked up one of my apps Word Mix. Below the pricing information there was a big green button saying Test Drive Now. I was in Chrome when I saw this. Doesn't look like it is for all apps. I would say that it is a developer feature, but I'm not signed in to my developer Amazon account when I see it. It's pretty slick, but laggy with button presses. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Re: [android-developers] Amazon Appmarket is now open!
I really just wish that Google would bite the bullet and implement some of the much needed features for the Android Market. I'm not unhappy with what's there and I know the individuals are putting in serious effort, so I don't want my comment to come off as a snub to those developers. I really hate the idea of managing two app stores, not only for myself but for consumers. If the Android Market was where I think a lot of us believe it should be, Amazon wouldn't have even seen an opportunity in building their own market. Competition is great and all, but in the end it's simply going to make us spend time thinking about app stores and not our apps. I think that's a problem. -- Chris Stewart http://chriswstewart.com On Tue, Mar 22, 2011 at 9:28 AM, Marcin Orlowski webnet.andr...@gmail.comwrote: Awesome!

Re: [android-developers] Amazon Appmarket is now open!
Hm, I do not see anythink like that for app you named - make sure you wasn't logged. I swear it's there for my apps, even when I'm not logged into Amazon. But I'm like others...I can't seem to find it on other apps...ah wait! Found it on another app Impossible Level Game LITE. Here's the text on the about for the web emulator: Clicking the “Test drive now” button launches a copy of this app on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), an Amazon Web Service available to developers. When you click on the simulated phone using your mouse, those inputs are sent over the Internet to the app running on an Amazon server—just like a finger tap is sent to the app on your mobile device. From the server, the video and audio output from the app are sent back to your computer. All this happens in real time, creating the effect that you're running the app locally on your computer. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Asking users to enable unknown sources doesn't seem like a good idea. I bet my mom would be confused as hell over this. If the known source is just the Market, there's no other way at the moment. I am not sure, but could it be it's Market rules that simply disallows apps like Amazons Appstore?

Re: [android-developers] Amazon Appmarket is now open!
It is true you may not distribute an app through Android Market whose primary purpose is distributing apps. I suspect we will see the Amazon Appstore pre-installed on OEM devices in the near future (at least in the US). - Richard Lawler -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
