Amazon launches Amazon Appstore for Android -

Online books retailer Amazon.com, Inc., US, has announced the launch of the Amazon Appstore for Android at www.amazon.com/appstore. An innovative new feature called 'Test Drive' will enable customers to test apps on a simulated Android phone. Customers control the app through their computer using a mouse.

Customers can shop in the Amazon Appstore from any computer using a Web browser. They can also access the Amazon Appstore directly on their Android phones or tablets, once they've installed the Amazon Appstore application. When customers purchase an Android app from the Amazon Appstore they can use the app on any of their Android devices.

The Amazon Appstore will include popular Amazon features like personalised recommendations, customer reviews, and 1-Click payment options. There will also be detailed product descriptions, including screenshots and video content that shows apps in action. In order to ensure customers have the best possible experience with the apps they purchase, all apps are Amazon-tested before they're made available in the Amazon Appstore.
