Besides the Price Drop, we have improved some of the features of AndroidZoom in the latest version released. Take a glance at it!
Icon view
The next new feature of the latest version of AndroidZoom.com that we are going to present is the Icon View. Now you can choose between the classic List view of the apps of each category and the Icon view that will allow you to see at a glance the apps in an easier way, without scrolling down the bar. As well as in the classic view, you may sort the apps by Newest, Popularity and Rating. Likewise, the Icon View it is available for all the categories and section of the site. The difference is, basically, that you will see just the icon and the name of the app. The strength of this new feature is that it makes your app discovering faster and easier. If you are interested in one of the app of the list, you just need to click on it to get to the app’s page. There you will have the option to check it deeply and to download it.
We are pretty sure that as well as money (by the new Price Drop tab), AndroidZoom.com users want to save some time in their app discovering. For that reason, we have launched the new Icon View. We really hope it will be a fruitful tool and you will make the most of it.
My menu
Have you tried to sign in in the latest version of AndroidZoom.com in the last few days? As well as other new features which we are presenting in this post, the user’s account menu has been improved in order to make easier the way the users manage their app’s lists and their reports. Unlike the previous My menu options located in the top of the categories frame, we have put the users account options together in a drop-down list in the new My menu. One of the strengths of the new featured My Menu is that the AndroidZoom users do not need to create a new account to get access because we have integrated the Google’s login system.
Regular users will have access to their customized lists of apps by “My lists” and will be able to send reports by “My issues sent”. Those users who are also developers may use the added value services from AndroidZoom developer’s account: receive feedback from the users of your apps and add additional relevant information to your app’s profile.
The main goal of the new featured My Menu is to improve the ease of navigation and the management of the users accounts.
Easy downloading
One of the most important sections of AndroidZoom.com for users is the app sheet which contains all the information about the application: reviews, downloading means (QR, links to the Android market, direct download of .apk), screenshots and videos, comments, permissions and changelog (updates). Since it is the primary source of information for AndroidZoom’s users, we have tried to improve its design and its accessibility. And this is the result:
The new design of the tab-bar on the top allows us to get to the different sections easily. All the content of the app’s sheet is accessible from this tabs. Useful, easy and fast!
Under the tab-bar you will find how many people likes that app in Facebook which is an indicator of its popularity and success (but you have to take in account that those people click on “Like” from Androidzoom’s app sheet).
Below you may check the main appdata: rating, price, version, publisher, file size, amount of downloads, package. The buttons on the right side: QR Code (the new button that links app sheet in the Android market by a QR code), Add to list (to add the app to your list of favorites app in your AndroidZoom’s account), and, finally, the iFrame to embed the widget of the app in your site.
If you click on “Download” you may choose the option you prefer to download the application: QR Code, direct download link in your e-mail or manually install from the Android Market.
The review, under the download button, will bring you the information about what the app is, how it works, developer info, versions compatible, pros and cons and rating.
Finally, at the bottom you may check the recent changelog, what list the app has been included in and the available screenshots of the app.
We really hope you like the new design and the new features we have included in the latest version of AndroidZoom.com. Feel free to check it out and give us some feedback if you consider that there are things that could be improved! But, above all, have a… Happy new AndroidZoom site discovery!
