If you own an Android smartphone like HTC Rhyme, you can download applications similar to the famous AppStore on phones like iPhone 4S. This is thanks to the Android Market, which is where Android smartphone owners can browse thousands of applications from various categories that can be downloaded directly to the phone.
Android Market has recently received an update that has given it a new look and feel, as well as being much easier to use. In this article, I will walk you through the process of downloading an app on an Android smartphone like HTC Rhyme.
The Android Market application is provided as standard on all supported Android smartphones. The app can be found in the ‘All apps’ menu at the bottom left of the HTC Rhyme home screen. When you’ve scrolled through the apps to locate the Android Market shortcut (this can also be placed on the home screen for your convenience), simply tap on it to open it. When opened, the Android Market home screen will appear, featuring promoted content such as premium movies and game titles. There are also shortcuts to apps, books, and movies, all of which can be downloaded to your phone.
Tap on the apps shortcut and you will be directed to the apps home page, where the promoted apps will be displayed again. Then you can slide your finger across the screen from right to left to browse the best paid apps. Repeat this action and you will be presented with the best free apps. From the home page, you can also swipe from right to left, where it will take you to a category menu, where you can search for apps by category. There are many to choose from and once one has been selected, you can swipe left or right to see the highest paying, free, and highest earning apps within that category. You can scroll up or down to view them in order of popularity, or tap on the magnifying glass icon at the top right to search for a specific app title or keyword, where you will then be presented with an on-screen Qwerty keyboard to enter. title. of the application you are looking for.
Once you have found the desired app, just tap on the download button and the process will begin. To ensure the fastest download time, I recommend using a Wi-Fi connection, although a 3G connection will certainly suffice, but data charges may apply depending on your rate and data allowance.
Your app will start downloading and installing in the background and you can check its progress on the notification screen which can be accessed by swiping down from the top of the touch screen. Once successfully installed, you will be able to find the app in the ‘All apps’ menu and you can choose to place it on one of the 7 home screens provided by the HTC Sense user interface.
As you can see, downloading apps to Android smartphones like HTC Rhyme is a relatively simple task. Just follow the steps above if you are doing this task for the first time, and I am sure it will become second nature in no time.
