I hired a programmer to write an app for me, a search engine, which is free. For the app to be any use at all, you must also install one or more databases (also free) either from a separate web site (link provided) or you download a PC application (also free, and from that same web site) and create your own databases to search. The numbers of downloads reported seem to say that only about 10% of them are kept, the others deleted - possibly because they found the app alone does nothing. If I understand the numbers correctly, that is. Is there any way I could include a sample database on the App Store web site, attached to my app page somehow, such that any downloaders get at least ONE database making the app useful right away ? It could be as small as <400kb. I would name the database something to indicate the date/contents, to help them understand they can get more, they just have to read the instructions. The app has a Settings button where the user can specify where the databases are located.
Any suggestions would be most welcome. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
