How Do You Choose Which Apps To Buy?

by POPSUGAR Tech 4

There are over 100,000 apps in the App Store for iPhone. There are thousands of BlackBerry apps and thousands of Android apps. I suspect the number of mobile applications is only going to grow. While poking around the Web today looking for some new, feature-worthy apps, I found myself a little overwhelmed. There are almost too many! Even with great sites like GetJar and Apple's suggested applications list, I have a tough time sifting through them all.

So, tell me, do you have any tricks for finding your favorite apps? Do you ask friends? Read reviews? I have a constantly-growing list of favorites, but I'd love to hear your suggestions.
