AppSpy is a new web site specializing in iPhone gaming needs.  AppSpy aggregates App prices for games and alerts iPhone App users when such applications become free. The cleverest function of AppSpy is the price tracking feature. Price Tracking is a great way of getting the games you want without having to pay the high prices of a newly released game. App prices generally fluctuate soon after a mobile game releases.  Price Tracker allows the user to tag the desired App for tracking and be informed of any price reductions and take advantage of ‘one-day only free’ promotions.

In addition to being alerted when prices drop, users can read and watch quality reviews of all the new games, while gathering information on the latest iPhone gaming news.

AppSpy has a team of enthusiastic iPhone gamers who play and review the latest release games from across all categories in the AppStore. There are up to six game reviews released a day, including full video reviews which demonstrate actual game play. All videos are linked to AppSpy’s YouTube channel. Reviews include a list of pros and cons, verdict, screenshots and a 1 to 5 rating system.

The AppSpy news team keeps an eye on all upcoming game releases, product launches and technological advances for their users – so if this sounds like something that floats your boat, check out AppSpy here.

About The Author

Ben Robinson

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
