Amazon Appstore Arrives In India, Challenges Google Play


In order to purchase paid apps, the website demands users to connect their credit cards. But it won’t be necessary while downloading free services. During its launch in the country, the company had begun welcoming apps built by developers from within the region and thus as a surprise no local apps could be spotted on the site currently.

The advent of the Amazon Appstore in India is a result of the upgrade that drives the portal to version 5.0. The digital outlet which offered support for merely 7 countries has included 195 regions in total including Australia, Brazil, Mexico, Canada and South Korea. The Kindle Fire maker has plotted ways to divert customers’ attention by offering one paid app for free on a daily basis from the traditional Android outlet. As of now, users can download Fruit Ninja which is otherwise worth $0.99 without spending a penny.
