      I know there's a few out there, AppSniper, AppMiner, BargainBin(or whatever),.. anymore?


      I'll make a poll if enough people care.

      AppSniper

      I have AppSniper, but I rarely use it, and I prefer to just read the forums for new releases of value.

      I use PandoraBox but mostly I use these forums. The forums will show great app releases and sales far faster than the apps available through the app store.

      Come to think of it I might just have to remove PB for taking up my highly valuable springboard space.

      AppSniper is buggy and slow for my taste but it has a lot more features you won't find in other apps of it's kind like snipes, watch lists, and filters where you can filter out certain sellers which is nice.

      Appsniper was brilliant but unfortunately has steadily declined to the point of being unusable

      I agree. I used to use appsniper every day, but I just uninstalled it a week ago. Totally worthless now. Pandorabox is the best now. it's free, easy to track prices of apps, and easy to see when stuff goes on sale. Can't really get better than that.

      You can. just make them your favorites. Then you can see when the prices drop. It works the same.

      PandoraBox makes it much easier to keep track of apps though. You can enter in many apps that you want, but are waiting for price drops. Then PandoraBox will show you when the prices drop for anything in your list, then you can go buy it.

      Don't buy Appsniper. It is broken an no longer supported. It is missing many new games.

      Does Pandora's Box do push notifications for when any of your watched apps go on sale? That would be useful.

      I use Pandora Box, but have also found Bargain Bin to be good. I have not tried tracking with them, but they both seem to be up to date (actually, things frequently show up that you have a wait at the app store an hour or so before the price changes are shown.)

      Thanks for the tips about tracking - I have not used that, will try it.
