Nice app + right Ads Network = profit
There are many mobile ad networks worth trying.
i.e. you can try out Leviteo Mobile Affiliate Network - more details at leviteo.com
The most important thing is to have a nice idea!
Then your app has to have a nice design and be smart!
After you developed the App you can sell it via Playstore or/and use ads in your app.
You have to make your App "famous" and get many people who are using this App.
If you have people who are using the app you can list in the App other Apps from you and recommend your Apps to them.
So you have a small Community
Important things
Develop a nice app
Get the right ads network
Advertise the app

According my experience you need to develop easy to use, professional looking and easy to understand app, but keep in mind to do what people looking for, for example take pool game, go to google play, look how many pool games with keyword "pool game" then see comments, if are great you can resegment the game like so : "pool game on ice" so if people look for pool games and ice find you game, and if your game is also cool, you have a great probabilities to gain good money
I have sintetized a really huge argument... but warning to create a really cool great idea game... for my experience don't works

Why does iphone have tons of medical and Nursing apps and Android has none??
Why cant we get Davis Drug Guide, and many more medical apps that are running on iphones?
If you know where i can get these apps for android please respond.
thanks
How about instead of asking here which wont help go right to the source?
a bnf would be awesome
and as a student nurse a care plan guide would be awesome.
if i was shown how to make a menu based app i would gladly do it
This sounds awesome! I'm actually going into nursing after my pre-reqs are done so an app like this would be god-like to me
The problem is copyright status on the data needed for such an app.
I'd love to have a PDR and a D Calc.
There should be a way to filter content like the porn girls even though it don't show nothing I don't my kids to have the option of seeing it on the market if this is the wrong section mods please edit

That I know of there isn't anything provided by Google. Would be nice if they implemented some of the parental controls that Apple has on their iPhone OS.
I'm sure there will be much better sorting and filtering once the web browser version of the Market launches.
You would think they would have a filter even if it was just a app come on Google. Internet should be a tool but not one to exploit girls or guys

For now, you could try appbrain... it allows filters...
There should be a filter, I haven't seen the apps myself. But depending on how graphic they are they might not even be allowed on the market

Wait, whats wrong with porn girls????

Oh your kids.. nevermind XD

Easy fix. Get an iPhone.
Seriously, it is annoying.
Seems to me the more apps in the market the happier Google are. They don't seem to give a rats if they are absolute junk like many of them. They just want the app count up asap so they can brag about the growth. The [apps>Just in] option should be renamed [apps>Junk]. I do not think Googles approach is particulary fair on developers of genuine apps which drown in the mire of rubbish.
I mentioned in another thread how surprised I am the Top Paid app in the productivity section of the android market can only appeal to such a small portion of users. Seems to me the Market is not really gaining genuine momentum, if thats the best it can do. It is just filling up with fluff.
At least as craigacgomez says, Appbrain does a half decent job of hiding the rubbish.
The thing that annoys me most about the Android Market is that they won't give access to paid apps in many countries.
Why on earth would they block paid apps in some countries is just beyond me. I have a credit card, I want to pay for the apps, I want to spend money, so pleaseeee let me spend Google!!!
Am I way out of line for thinking that a kid who is old enough to carry a $600 phone should also be old enough to know a little bit about the world? I see more provocative images on billboards on the side of the interstate and ads on the side of Facebook for crying out loud.

No I think that is a fair comment.
But if I understand correctly the OP was actually asking for a way to filter content. His pet hate is porn. Others are OK with the porn but want to filter the Spam apps. So to my mind user configurable filtering of the market would be a good thing.
I read that Google is cleaning up the Android Market. I have yet to see this. !
Why don't they just update the market app to allow blocking of certain developers and their crap apps..
For example free4android and their 146 crap games, Susan xin and her 40 different versions of the same "funny pictures" app, Andy.Li who I'm pretty sure is also aka Susan xin, Puzzle and their 267 different apps of wallpaper puzzles...which the market is LOADED with along with memory games. Instead of a "flag as offensive", just let us block them. You can delete them but they'll just make another gmail name and reflood the market again.
For once i'd like to check the Just-In and not thumb scroll endlessly through crap apps from these spam like developers.
It is annoying, but I really don't care. I usually just search or look at top apps/games.
Let's not turn it into a locked down app-store.
They could let users apply a filter to their market app to filter out the offending devs I suppose. ie-go to one of offending devs pages in marketplace and click "add dev to block-filter" or something similar. I'd guess I might filter a few out if I had the option.
I thought this was about our forums at first and was excited!

eh maybe it's just my personal annoyance. :\ i liked how Apple has their iphone market setup to where you can see the NEW apps without wading through so much junk.
if anyone can point me to a website or e-newsletter that informs you of NEW good quality legit apps and not these wallpaper, puzzles, memory game wasters. than PLEASE tell me

From a phone on an app
Is there a reason? I've used several nice apps from here, but just curious why you dont give them more exposure.
A lot of them are on the market, they are just posted here too.

It costs money to get on the market. Xda is free. Would you rather get something for free here, or pay for it on the market?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I think I remember reading in another thread that there was a fee you have to pay before putting apps on the market. I assume it doesn't matter if the app is free or not.

Thats true.
Its like 20$+ to be a developer for Android.
The devs may not be sure if they'll get that 20$+ back after putting it on the market and it doesn't sell as much... so they post it here
As a Dev $25 doesnt really matter to potentially get more exposure so I don't understand why other devs don't put their good apps on the market many of them are useful even for people other than power users
is $99 not $25 and not all devs are from market enabled countries
I'm pretty sure it's $25. The app store on iOS is 100.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
The only reason I can see besides the $25 or $99 fee is the ratings.
Once an app is posted to the market you have somewhere around 9.2 million Americans with access to your app. If your app has bugs or is not perfect from the start you start getting 1 star ratings. These ratings will slowly knock your app away from any sort of recognition.
Developers on XDA post there app here in order to receive constructive criticism, instead of a market comment like "App has Force Close Errors 1 star." Instead on XDA the developers can get and give ideas to other. Then when they seem like the app is fully tested they can choose to post it to the market.

The Android Market fee is a ONE-TIME $25. iOS is yearly.
Xda is a test bed for good ideas. Said good ideas get made into an app that gets throughly tested ppl with different phone models then the dev. Then the app can go to market.

My apps are in the Android Market.
Mine is on the Market and has a thread on here, although I haven't attached the free APK to the thread.
And yeah, although the UI isn't great (I have plans for it) and I don't advertise a lot, I still managed to earn a little over $200 so far, making back well over the $25 I spent to be able to sell my app. It's worth it.

The above is a very good reason for posting your app elsewhere before publishing on the market. Most of the market reviews I've had regarding a problem didn't include any useful information on how to replicate the issue. For example, you'll typically get comments like "Freezes!" or "Force closes!" with no indication where in the app these problems occur. Likewise, identifying and fixing device specific issues is particularly difficult if you only rely on market reviews.

I'm not sure this is a big deterrent. It's a $25 one-time fee to publish as many apps as you want and you wouldn't need many sales or ad clicks to cover this cost.
agree....you will get more useful info alot faster on XDA regarding fuctionality and bug reports.
Alot of people just develop apps as a hobby with no intention of selling them. So why pay the $25?
and sometines you get banned without explanation so its a good place to upload you apk's google ban without send a warning maybe an icon, maybe something you did wrong and you couldnt fix they just ban and close you play store forever (and the next account you can made)
I put my Apps both on here and on the App Store.
I don't make any money from my apps, but I love Android because it's only a one time fee of $25 to publish apps to Android.
I was going to start with iOS but that's $100 yearly. Kind of ridiculous in my opinion.
Yup, Google Play is only a 1 time fee of $25. I dont think devs should be afraid of low ratings. You can't satisfy everyone. I get requests daily about what I should include in the app. There a lot of ideas and for a 99 cent app, I'm just not sure its worth it to build all these ideas into the app. The ones I do pay attention to are the ones where they say something doesn't work or it crashes when this or that happens.
I know everybody probably has the following
Advanced Task Manager
Skype
Dolphin/Opera/Miren Browser
But what other little "gems" have you found on the net that now it would be hard to live without.
Free Apps
Freenote What a beauty! Taking meeting notes etc in freehand or Kboard.
Store audio or pictures from the camera straight into a note. mail etc
3CX Sip Phone: Free, Simple and it works!
Dual File Manager: Uppacks Zip files on the fly and intuitive to use.
QuickPic: Much better than gallery able to Hide the directories you don't want to include.
MoboPlayer: Seem to play all the video files I have (WMF, AVI,etc etc)
Wifinder: Quick and easy Wifi control
Swiss Arny Knife: (all the common helpfull stuff in one package) especially the ruler!
Paid Apps
Roadsync: (If you have to interface into outlook, it just works)
Documents to Go: Seems to handle most of the microsoft virus (sorry office) files.
Beautiful Widgets: (Worth the money if your a HTC Sense fan)
Root explorer/total commander and titanium backup are must have apps!
plume,friend me, CNBC, news pres, file manager hd, great battles, talk, pulse, a currency, gamefly, qello, news360, the daily habit there's more....
Note all the apps I stated are fully optimized for the xoom

I didn't ask what was your favourite app "Optimized For Honeycomb" List (Includes games)"
I asked what was your favourite app. Not all apps are optimised and work that well on Xoom. I think of all the apps I mentioned only 5 were on your "Optimised" list
Is this how you get your post count so high?
I know I am a "newbie" on here and thanks for the warm welcome "Senior Member!"
Maybe you should read the thread before jumping down my throat.
Your apology accepted!

Seriously, dude, buzz off. Is that how you increase your post count? Nobody gives a rat's ass about newbies like you. And it IS a redundant thread. Thus, you can go frack yourself.
We are seriously in need of the ban hammer. People need to respect around here.
By the way OP download the Amazon app store and get Fieldrunners. That's my favorite app so far.

Most people here DO NOT have Advanced Task Manager because, well, this is Android. No task killers needed. Of course in certain situations they can be useful, but not just for killing apps to free up memory.

Last I checked this isn't StackOverflow. IMO, the OP is right in this case, and what the hell is the harm if he isn't? This thread is in the right place, and more content can help people find things by chance.
I don't always reply to pseudo-trolls, but when I do, its because you need to get your head out of your ass.
