I hate Google Play. I can?t remember the last time I discovered an app just browsing it that I wanted to throw my money at. Heck I can?t remember the last time I stumbled across a free app that was worth downloading, and much of that is to do with the kind of apps that I see on the home page that are said to be ?trending?.
The big issue for me is, my tastes are�extremely�different from the majority of the other Indian Android users. For some reason, only crap apps seem to be popular. It might be a case of Android smartphones being dirt cheap over here, and appealing to a demographic that tends to love downloading stuff that are either
(a) have some pornographic nature (there are 3 of them in the screenshot)
(b) offer features that don?t really work, but are named to attract downloads like the ?fingerprint unlock? in the screenshot
(c) promise to make your device iPhone-ish.
It?s a similar thing over at Twitter, where I hate the local trends they show me. However, I can just change the settings over there to show me what?s trending in San Francisco, since I like to keep up with the buzz of Silicon Valley. I wish I could do the same on Play, too. It?s a little thing, and I?m sure you could make that happen really quickly.
