When you consider that most categories have "sexy wallpaper" (and other spam apps) in them, the value of categories sort of lose some luster. I suggest just picking one that you feel is most appropriate and stick with it. Switching categories probably has no effect on your popularity but it could cause some confusion among your users. When you first start out, the only way a user will find your app is by search so category doesn't mean much. Once you start moving up in the popularity, category becomes more important but unless you're at least in the top 800, it's really irrelevant.
The "Just in" tab in the category is also pretty much rendered moot as the "sexy wallpaper" apps are updated so often that the "just in" tab is always flooded with spam. I say top 800 because the market stops listing apps after 800 have been displayed. Perhaps that will change in the future. -John Coryat -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Discuss" group.
