Showing demand for WP apps to app developers

[Al_2]

With WP8 becoming more popular hopefully some more of the big name apps will start coming our way. For now though I think if we show developers that there's demand out there they might consider more seriously committing to building a Windows Phone app. So the more of us that ask or enquire about them the more they can see there's a demand for them and therefore worth making the app. I've collated some different contact details for some of the big apps so that we can let them know the demand is out there! Feel free to add any more!

I started a thread like this recently but since you have such a nice list of links I think I'd like to put my links here instead and have one nice place for them all.

Two apps I had thought of were

Comixology: Windows 8 app available, worth mentioning

Online Form: Contact Us - Comics by comiXology
Twitter: https://twitter.com/cmxsupport

Stumbleupon: Windows 8 app available, worth mentioning

Online Form: StumbleUpon | Email Us (must be a member)

Another app from my past thread

Trillian:

Online Form: Windows Phone 8 and "Metro" support... / Suggestions / Discussion Area - Trillian Support
Twitter: https://twitter.com/trillianastra

I actually tweeted comixology and they said they're looking into it, and the tweet before mine was also requesting a windows phone app. They told him they had no word on that yet. hopefully some pressure will get us from no word to looking into it to downloadable.

They barely support Android right now, so hopes are low - but still worth getting some requests in.

After sending Snapchat support mails weekly since December I finally got a response:

Daisy replied:
At this time, Snapchat is not compatible with your device. However, we are always working on ways to improve Snapchat and plan on making it available to more devices in the near future. Keep an eye out for it at the app store! We appreciate all your support.

Thank you!
