The problem, I think, is that if a trendy app is not available, some people may decide not to switch, I know this sounds like a stupid reason but it makes some sense
Yehh agreed. It's a good point.
I saw many people who just care about popular apps.....
Just want to tell a short story....
About a year ago Someone asked me
Does your Lumia have candy crush saga......i said no.......then that person straight a way said, why you bought that phone it even doesn't have popular games......Just surprised that time...........sounds really stupid but its a real thing. And many asks before buying phone does it support this app or that game or if no then not interested in that device....and bla bla bla bla.
Later candy crush saga comes to wp
And also I am happy that new apps taking a way towards wp.
But some still are missing including snapchat and present apps also need to be updated...hope so....
