AppReview — free app and website covers over 17,000 apps

The two big problems with the App Store are sifting through the over 30,000 apps to find the ones that suit you, and for the developers, getting your app noticed. AppReview helps. This is a website and a free app with reviews of over 17,000 of the apps in the App Store, providing a hands-on evaluation of each app's core features and functions. In addition, the review judges the app not only on its own merits but also compares it to apps in the same category. Each app is assigned rating of "good," "better," or "best." And the free app identifies apps best suited to your profile. If you find something you like, you can connect to the App Store directly from AppReview.

I have a Ph.D. in literature and writing, and a love of gizmos. I work part-time for iPhone Life magazine and really enjoy the people I work with, my iPad, and Apple's visionary products. It feels like a revolution. My Ph.D. dissertation, completed long ago, focused on the revolutionary consequences of digital technologies and anticipated some of the things we're seeing today.

Jim, this is helpful... Too bad we don't have some way to make it sticky for the bloggers. This is very useful for App Store research. Actually, it would be cool if we could get a similar system going. That site is perfect for finding the gems.

Glad you found it useful

Hi, Nate. Yes, would be great if we could do something similar. Ii can't imagine how they're able to review thousands of apps  But glad someone's doing it.
