    No it doesn't have push, but it would be nice. That's a great idea.

    Does PandoraBox notify you in any way? (Email?) Do any of them? Or do you have to keep manually launching the tracker app all the time?

    You have to launch the app once in a while and look at your favorites list. Usually i'll just look once every few days. the discounts usually pop up on a friday or saturday or around holidays because the devs like to do weekend & holiday sales.

    For some reason the developer doesn't respond to emails. The apps data base has big gaps and at times it just quits updating like it did today.
    I'm about ready to just delete it. This was the best app in the store.

    AppSniper was the first I think but now I use PandoraBox and StoreExtend. I like PandoraBox because it is a lot more stable (AppSniper is an unstable POS) and I like how I can scroll through price-changes while see the ratings of the Apps. Makes me catch a good App on sale a lot faster.

    I wish that AppShopper did the same.

    Do any of them use push notifications?

    F*ck AppSniper. I was so mad when I got that only to find out the dev's quit supporting it and probably killed themselves (at least in my mind). I don't use the apps anymore I use appshopper.com. It sends you emails whenever the apps on your "Wish List" go on sale. It's a really clean and informative site, and I would suggest using it. But like I said, it isn't an app. It's a site, but it's the best as of right now.

    I use appsniper and don't have a problem with it. Forums are good but there are some apps that I want that I know probably won't show up on this forum if there is a sale.

    Wow, a little excessive there don't ya think?

    I went from AppSniper to PandoraBox to AppShopper and the TA forums. I think app trackers are just a waste of my storage space at this point. Better to let a web site (much more scalable) track things than a native app. I also like the email feature with AppShopper, I don't have to look at it each day. It is also a clean site and works great on my iPhone 3g.

    The reason I like Pandora Box is that changes generally show up there 1 - 2 hours before they show up in App Shopper - but I only use it if I need an app fix... Gotta save battery power for GAMES!! The phone part was just a nice addition....

    I wish it listed the app store rating somewhere. Did I miss it?

    See all the games listed here on the New games page?

    Appminer does not have a single one. None.

    You also have Store-extend on AppStore and the website http://www.store-extend.com
    Developers of this app are really aware to improve it, you even have a "contact us" page on the app.

    For me it's the best one (really close to AppStore interface but with much more features)
