Top Tips on How to Buy Android Apps

You have a new mobile phone with the Google Android Operating System and finally you can stop listening to your iPhone enabled friends talk about the iPhone App Store. You have the Android Market with thousands of Android apps to chose from. This article will tell you how to buy Android Apps.

Instructions

Step 1 Start at the Android Market

Use your computer or your cell phone to browse the Android Market. You will need your mobile phone to purchase the applications.

Use the tabs for 'Top Paid' and 'Top Free' to see what others are downloading or buying from the Android Market.

Finally - point the browser of the Android enabled phone to the Android Market, browse to the app you want and download, accepting the prompts. You cannot dowload to your computer then move to the phone, all downloads are to your phone directly.

Step 2 Paying for an Android app

Create a Google Checkout account with a Google email account. This will be the fastest way to purchase your Android Apps. Do this from your desktop before you try to buy apps.

When you download the Android app to your phone you will be billed to your credit card.

If you are an international purchaser (outside of the United States) look at the help button at the bottom of the Android Market home page and then click on 'Paid App Availability' for a list of countries that can purchase the applications with currency conversion. More countries are added all the time.

Step 3 Returning Android Apps

There are policies available for returning Android apps if you are not happy with the result. Go to the Android Market help page (see link below in Additional Resources) for information on how to do this.
