Things the Google Play Store Should Add, Change

I also one of those terrible Android users that pretty much populates my phone with just free apps. Navigating play to sort out the free from the paid apps is an unbelievable chore. I'm not going to buy an app when I'm looking for free ones, period. Having no way to simply browse free apps makes the play store so unusable that I never actually go to it.

On the occasion that I do want to buy an app, I never find it through the store either, it's 100% a referral from someplace else.

What are you talking about? It's very easy both on the phone and on the desktop to browse free apps and games.

Free apps list: https://play.google.com/store/apps/collection/topselling_fre...

Free games list: https://play.google.com/store/apps/category/GAME/collection/...

They also break down paid vs free in specific categories, like free finance apps: https://play.google.com/store/apps/category/FINANCE/collecti...

I think he means he wants free apps that have no IAPs.

Good now go to games and just get "free" apps. Not "top free".
