[Q] Samsung App Store?

I see everyone referring to it all the time, but I have no idea where it is.
It's no where to be found on my stock T-Mobile Tab.
Do I have to download it from somewhere? Couldn't find it anywhere.

Its just called Samsung Apps. Have you done a manual update since you got your Tab? Sometimes thats caused apps to go missing until a factory reset.

Nope. Haven't updated it at all, says there's no updates available. It was activated at the store before I bought it, maybe they updated it?
So if I factory reset it, then update it again, wouldn't I lose the app again?
How would I update it and keep "Samsung Apps"?

I don't think the USA based Tabs have access to the Samsung App Store.
I would like to know also if this is not true.

Erm, thats basically what Samsung Apps is. AFAIK, every Galaxy phone has it and ot provides apps made for the phones.

can someone post the app, let's see if it works.

Well it looks like the first app appeared for me... Blinx beat... I was hoping for asphalt... But who doesn't appreciate there little doesn't deserve the good... Patience is the key here

I believe this did get left out of the north american tabs, at least the t-mo. Mine did not come with it. I also did not get any stock e-reader apps I see others with. Nothing for books our magazines. I did get the media hub put it was promptly removed after root. I also work for tmo and our official documentation says nothing about these apps.

Generalistic and wrong statement.
EU tabs come with it

I purchased my device from Orange Austria. Also on my Tab some Apps were missing (as far as I remember Samsung Apps, Ebookreader, calculator)
It seems that the tabs sold through providers are limited.
I have flashed latest firmware and now have all apps. But in Samsung Apps nothing is shown. Is there anything I can change to make it work?

Ah.
I always hear people refer to how much better the Facebook app is in their app store, and other free apps that I never knew how to access.
I wish we could get the apk for the Samsung app store, or for these free apps.

after i update few in the samsung app, thats appear no more update, n i connect my tab to the Kies, its showing that tab is not compatible to it, so i cant download anything from it

Verizon tab
I have a Verizon Tab and I was wondering the same thing. Everyone is talking about getting the free need for speed game and I can't get it because I don't have the Samsung Apps. Very frustrating! You would think when you spend $600 for an oversized phone that it would at least come with a few more apps. Don't get me wrong I think the tab is pretty cool but when you get down to it this thing is really nothing more than a big Android phone with the phone part. I'm a bit disappointed with the lack of tab specific apps.

yes please someone post this apk because i would like it as well

No, no and no. This is one thing that Google keep on being told by us (the users) they need to sort out urgently. It makes it almost unmanageable on the Play Store.

How can I see which paid apps have I bought? I bought a game a while ago and can't remember the name now, so is there any list of my paid apps on Playstore?

In Play Store you can see a list of all programs you have a some time installed, on that list you kan see if the app is free or paid. But i might take a little time to go thruogh the list

[REQUEST] application that show last time an as been update (by dev in playstore)

sorry if this is the wrong place, just wonder if exist or someone dev can develop an application that shows the last time an application has been update in play store so if an app is not developed since long time i can check in playstore if there is a valid alternative.
cheers and thanks.

What? You can do that from the play store itself.

Try Changelog Droid from the market. It keeps history of your updates and shows when the app was last updated.

good suggestion but the upgrade "day" mentioned in this app is the day when you upgraded it not when the dev has released the upgade

Perhaps that's true, but how long do you usually wait before updating an app in the market? If you update the same day or even the next day, it's still pretty accurate, no?

the problem comes if you are a flash-aholic and restore from titanium after a clean full wipe flash of a rom.

In that case, you might be better off with a website that you can add your current apps on and it gives dates or details for when dev updates were issued.
I use something like that for ios, but I'm not sure what's available for Android apps.

tried but it does not import installed application by default and i'm not sure if it is possibile to list the application sorting last update (on play store) order.

Try MarketMarks.
You'll have to add your own apps there, but it will check for recent updates which you can't sort.
Not really sure what else would work. What are you trying to accomplish with what you're looking for?

Would like to list my applications installed currently and sort for last update (market day of update) to check which one does not has been updated since long time and maybe then Search by myself for a better and newer alternative in the play store

Apps not showing in Samsung Apps

I have a Gear 2 running on a Galaxy K Zoom in Texas. However most of the apps mentioned here don't shop up for me in Samsung Apps through Gear Manager. Is the Samsung App Store region/carrier/device specific? Can't find Paypal, Gear Navigator, etc. Anyone know how I can get the apps to show up?

I have a good news for you , downgrade from tizen to Android is possible and very easy, it's toturial ( how to )
If after downgrade your touch screen isn't working, don't panic You must flash evrything again and evrything works perfect, i too update, to tizen and back to android.

any solution or idea ?!?

Think it might be device specific. I have a note 2 with gear 2 Neo and no Golf Navi, gear navigator, etc. Decided to reset and pair neo to my work phone (galaxy S4) and they showed up. Tried downloading application to S4 then backed up apk and loaded on note 2. Application installed on phone OK but failed to install in gear manager. Not sure if this applies to all scenarios but this was my experience.

I am a developer and I have published Gear apps
Developer can choose group of devices and can also select regions and countries
I do select always all devices and all countries.
If the developer decide to select some devices and only one country, the the app will be published to the selected devices and to that country only
Why? I don't know!!
If you can't see my apps, then the problem is in your side
check "My Gear Apps" topic

Actually can see your apps in gear manager Lux and Thank you for your work on them. Looks like some GPS based apps (at least in my case) are being excluded from the Note 2 running 4.4.2

The previous version of my app (Multi-Watch) was compatible with 89 devices.
The current version only 55....
I didn't change or add any permissions.
Its a complete mystery to me.

this is what the developer console of the app store shows to me now:
<see attached screenshot>
I tried asking them what is the reason for it, but got referred to a standard app publishing paragraph..... as usual.
In total I have asked them 13 questions now, never got a real straight forward answer on my questions.
I wish there was a way to call them and speak with them on the phone.

It is a filter problem caused by the Samsung app store. Currently, they filter the devices manually like so: Gear 2 + Galaxy S5, Gear 2 + S4... and so on, which I think is kinda dumb. My apps on there are filtered for 55 combinations. I'm sure they are missing a lot!

Is there an app freeze?

Since the new version of the app store earlier this week I haven't seen a single new app available. anybody know if there's a freeze on while Samsung check the new store works properly? There was a steady stream of new apps before.

As a developer I have noticed that previous versions of my apps were compatible with much more devices(89) then the latest one does (57)
Maybe new releases of apps are at first available for a limited number of devices and and Samsung is certifying them in the background for more devices.
with devices I mean phone/gear combinations.

Please check now as loads of apps have joined.. well as the saying goes .. lull before a storm of apps

Haha, no sooner did I say anything...
There's a couple of task list apps too , just what I wanted
