Quixey has a novel way to shake up how we find mobile apps: let people type in their requests using normal language, and the company will dig up the appropriate program. Quixey has slowly built up its credibility silently powering other app search engines, most notably Sprint's own app store and Ask.com. So far, Quixey has garnered positive reviews on Google Play. The app, which is available for free, doesn't generate any revenue for now. But Quixey will eventually begin introducing sponsored app suggestions.
Getting started: Go to the Quixey website (or for Android devices, download the app and open it). If you use the website, at the top of the page, select the type of device you have. In the search bar, search for the type of app you’re looking for and click the search button. On the results page, click on the button that lists the cost of the item to go to the store and download it (or, on the website, you can also choose to send yourself a text message about it).
I downloaded the Apps Gone Free app and did find one app that was free today and downloaded it. (The Heart Rate app is the app I chose.) Apps Gone Free is a great way to discover apps from the App Store that have gone free for the day. To get the word out, apps will occasionally go on sale for a day or a week and this app lets you know about them. You’ll find five to ten apps of all different kinds highlighted per day.
I will probably still us Google Search when searching for apps or just go to the app store and see what is listed there. Apps Gone Free will be fun to use, however, and hopefully there will be some good apps available for free!!!
