[Android Apps and Games] Hunny Boss:
##1 GetJar App Store

.

With more than 2 billion downloads to date and around 395,000 registered app developers and publishers, GetJar is the largest independent app store on the Internet today. Its substantial Android app offering alone (around 350,000 apps) can easily rival that on the Google Play market. These figures should give publishers a good idea of how effective GetJar is as an app distribution platform.

GetJar features a reward and virtual currency system known as GetJar Reward and GetJar Gold respectively. GetJar rewards allow users to earn reward points for personally recommending apps. These rewards can be used to purchase app upgrades, themes, and unlocks. The more users are rewarded, the more they will recommend your app to other users. GetJar Gold (earned every time a user downloads a new app) is a virtual currency that can be used to purchase premium apps. These reward systems, along with GetJar’s cross-platform compatibility, make it a top choice when looking for indie app stores to publish apps on.

Most apps in the Amazon store are also available on the Android market, but Amazon provides access to another very large market of users. The Amazon App Store is easy to browse with simple access to ratings, reviews and screenshots by way of an Android handset simulator. One feature that sets this webstore head and shoulders above the rest is it offers a try-before-you-buy scheme, allowing your app to be tried out for size before purchasing by your prospective customers, a great way to ensure sales...!
