Getjar - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

This is probably well known, I found out about m.getjar.com, an alternative to Amazon in that you get access to paid apps for free!
Pro: apps such as Beautiful Widgets, Asphalt 6, Wikipedia, Smart Office, Image Shrink; no sign up needed
Con: no updates, less apps than Amazon...
Have fun with it, just gives a bit more variety in terms of the markets one can visit...
Cheers

Wikipedia is already free on the Android Market.

Isn't acquiring paid apps for free considered stealing?

Getjar is legit. It's been around longer than Amazon app market has.

This. Getjar made a couple more popular apps free to try and draw in more people to using it.

GetJar is legit, but most often you'll find their app versions are well behind the official market and Amazon, and you get no updates. So, it's mediocre, at best.

someone pointed me @ ------.net lot's of payed apps for free
(don know if it's legit)
removed the link don't wanna get banned

You'll probably want to delete that post. Sounds a lot like warez, which will bring the ban hammer down.

Applanet is definitely warez! It is illegal and devs will hate you for using it. Support the devs and buy your apps! Getjar is legit and like mentioned before most of the apps are older and updates are rare. It's a great avenue to try some paid apps before spending $ on them in the Market. Sometimes 15 minutes is just not enough.

Most likely the application won't run unless the Amazon App store is installed. Applications that originate from Amazon's app store tie in with their DRM.

There's no "most likely" about it, it WON'T run without having the AAS installed. As for the previous poster, you REALLY don't already have an amazon account?!

You give google access to every facet of your life including everything personal and private to you but you refuse amazon for sending targeted ads that only access your browsing/buying habits on their website? Hahahahahahahaha
Wake up. I trust amazon more than I do google (well I trust ANYTHING more than I do google actually), and even more than Apple. Amazon is a straight and clear-cut business with no aspirations about your personal/private info. Google does not differentiate between the two. It's all fair game with them.
Amazon as I know it, is a truly ethical, worthy company to invest in. They have earned my trust and money and a spot in my email inbox.

Anyone get pvz, peggle or Bejeweled 2 working? Workaround?

Upon firing up my nexus, I was disappointed to learn that these three titles will not work from the market. Titles in which I bought with money. Money that I worked to earn. Anyway, any help would be great cause ea is darn worthless when it comes to helping paying customers.

Best security app ever for EPIC4GT

Sorry for the shameless self promotion. But my Security app Root Defense was developed on the Epic 4G touch and unlike any other security app out there, it will allow you to continue to track your phone even if it gets wiped or a hard-reset by a thief.
It's almost impossible to lose your phone and it's completely free. You can subscribe if wanted for additional logging goodies.
It requires that you have a rooted phone (as most people have on XDA)
Please try it out and rate and comment on Google Play if you like it.
The Google Play page can be found here:

Yeah, Cerberus was a program created after ours that has many of the same features. Even including the 5 licenses for the price of one.
Root Defense comes with many many more features though and no user interface on the phone.
Basically its still free but with more features and a stealthier install.
Also ours shows the existing data of logs and location from before a phone went missing so you aren't in the dark when your device is off

Not emails, but most definitely texts, phone calls, and location. I'm not bashing this, just curious as to the advantages. I was one of the lucky ones who got Cerberus for free when they were doing the giveaway, just was wondering if it was worth... "upgrading"?

Root defense also is free and survives wipes and all the features the $4 a month is only if you wish to keep the logging features. All actually security features are free and always will be.
One of the major differences if the our free edition vs Cerberus is that our free version also keeps track of the last known coordinates.
What this means is that if your phone was stolen or lost and was either turned off or ran out of battery. Our product would show you where it last was and when it was there. Cerberus won't be able to show you anything as it needs to connect to the device each time to read data.
This is true of most fee or one-time fee programs because that's how they can afford it. In order to be helpful to people off-line, you need to store the data in a database which will quickly incur cost to developers (especially storing MMS messages.)
Anyway, different stroke for different folks. But keep in mind that after the trial ends, you still have (any always will have) all the free version features.
New version just released, check our main thread for details.

Watchmaker premium is now free as a part of Amazon's underground program (which means it's really free with no IAPs). Just thought people here would like to know.
Thanks for the heads-up!

Many thanks TheSt33v.

I have downloaded the apps through Amazon app store. However, for some reason I don't see it in my watch. It seems the watch is looking only for apps downloaded through Play Store. Any hint.

Dont remeber wat it was. Or the app didn't open or opened and force closed.
Any how it didn't work.
I happy to have bought it for 1euro on the play store
if you've updated your moto 360 to marshmallow, this version is buggy at best. Updated version, 3.9.7 is on the play store, devs updated it to work with marshmallow
Tax Free
Florida is tax FREE also.
I'm trying to get an answer about this from Amazon chat. Unfortunately, I'm not hopeful about getting an answer, they aren't very good about that.
