   I still don’t have carrier billing on either of my phones. I don’t have the new Market client on one of my phones. I don’t have an effective way to find apps I might like due to a lack of discoverability and inadequate search. As a developer, I get almost no information about my own applications (forcing the use of third party analytics solutions and the Internet permission where I might not have needed it before, if I want to know anything about my users). I’m sure I am missing something but I have to get to work… I’ll come back later if I think of anything I have not already said.

   I hate the search, it seems to have gotten better since 1.5- but come on the King’s of search have suckish search in the market. Suggestions if you get it wrong, related things, bring some of the Google websites features to the market

   And then more filters and a downloaded number higher than 250,000>

   You can look for apps by the same dev, find the app and scroll down to “more by developer”

   Are you going to keep running the same poll until you get the answers you want?

   I’ve actually dropped to “strongly disapprove”.

   Need a webfront end, a “download all updates” function like the App store, the ability to find more apps by the same dev, and a better way to “restore” if a user has to do a factory reset of their device.

   Horrible download performance lately. There is no rhyme or reason as to why some d/ls fly and others barf and drag.

   Add the ability to favorite apps. Because sometimes I download an application for one use and then delete it for space. For example tip calculators. Something i dont regularly use but download when i need to

   My personal issue is that there is no off-device interface. They really need a web client or an app, ala iTunes. A desktop app, even web app, would provide a lot more opportunities for discoverability, people could link to apps from various sites. Maybe not even have purchasing but maybe send a link to your phone via sms or something.

   A problem for a lot of people that I’ve talked to, not really an issue for me but I certainly understand it, is the non-native currency. Google requires apps be sold in the currency of the country of the app author. How hard would it be to localize it for the purchaser? Its off putting to see stuff thats 2 euros. Even though its all through the same Google Checkout system it appears like your sending money overseas to buy a twitter widget. (even though thats exactly what you are doing)

   Overall, I disapprove because there’s absolutely no discoverability, save for the Featured Apps which never change.

   Oh, and the fact that “Starting Download” never goes away half the time. That’s annoying.

   I’m on a G1 with Android 1.π Doclair (or, more accurately, Cyanogen), and I don’t care that I didn’t get the carrier billing update because Google Checkout isn’t all that bad, you guys, seriously.

    I think the biggest thing that google needs to do with the market is add the ability to filter by the amount of downloads and by the ranking…when you search for example , twitter, in the market you just get a whole random bunch of apps listed in no apparent order…i would like to be able to see which the most downloaded apps are and which are getting the highest ratings…with a minimum of a certain number of ratings…i would also like to see the ability to decide where the search looks…for example if it looks in the name of the app, in the description of the app, the developer name or in the comments…it would be nice to be able to have more advanced search features…i feel like google could EASILY do this considering they are GOOGLE and all…if this gets added i cannot see how the market could get any better other than some UI updates…maybe more than two screen shots would also be nice…
