Swipe top corner, tap sprocket, at the top goto about, general tab. (you can do all this while currently using any app aswell)

How many apps do you have on your playbook?

I have 168. Do I need more? No. Do I want more games? Yes.


Since I know I'll get the typical responses I'll add these rhetorical questions. To all of those who don't think the PB has enough apps you obviouly used the other platforms, wouldn't it make sense to stick with them since they seem to meet your needs? Do you think whinning on a non-RIM site is going to produce any results? Do you think you add anything valuable or constructive to this forum? If the PB is so bad why not move on? If you feel like you've been waiting forever why not take the initiative and find something that better suits your needs?

I feel like RIM has barely scratched the surface with the PB, I'll continue to be happy using my PB and will welcome any additions. In my opinion this is hands down the best tablet own the market and has no equal, and I got it for a fraction of the cost compared to the competition. Its only going to get better, and I have a feeling a lot better.

Only about 10-15 too few, as I am not an app person.

[madman0141]

I have 57 apps waiting on an app like MLB at Bat 12 for NHL, NFL, AND MLB on PlayBook.

[Blkacesvf41]

About 15, most of the games are for my kiddos.

[byul]

About average 150 ish. Plenthor of native and sideloaded applications.

146

[kbz1960]

Says 88. Not a big app person either.

[Double_J75]

Don't have my PB with me to check but I'd guess 200-220, and most are native. But I do have similar apps like different E-readers.

[mdmullis]

157 apps and still trolling for more usefull or full featured "new" apps to replace other functional apps for business and plesure.

[conix67]

complaints -> recognized and shared by others -> fed back to RIM for improvement

without this cycle, how can PB be improved, especially when there are still many things lacking on PB in current state. Why do some people here always use "whine" when people make legitimate complaints?

To me the number of Apps isn't important. I just want all the features PB comes with function as designed, including built-in apps. OS 2.0 was a great step forward, with much needed PIM application, but it still has a lot of little issues here and there, that are difficult to see unless you own one.

[Dim-Ize]

I have 156. I'd say that about 25-40 of them are for business / productivity. The majority is in the game / entertainment category.

[derrickps3]

97....about to delete some of them tho....and their all free by the way except 2 of them lol

[mmcan]

123, only two games, a few more entertainment. I too don't need more, just a few improvements

[spencerdl]

I have 118, about to delete a couple of non-used apps. They have been there since May with little/no use at all

[DAnklaud]

48, not including what is reported regardless of the fact they came pre-installed With the OS,some are duplicates of the same function to test for satisfaction of my needs

[Darlaten]

146 apps for me

[middbrew]

109 for me.

[OniPod]

47 + 2 (sideloading)

It's more than enough for me. I delete apps/games I do not plan on keeping though.

[CairnsRock]

I have 78, which I bought to try them. However, most are useless. I only use 4 or 5 of them.

[Brianflys]

The real question is how many apps do you USE? As in USE regularly not try a couple of times and then lose interest. I do not think the people with hundreds of apps use them all, maybe just downloaded them and tried them, them will say they use them to stroke the ego. I have maybe 10 apps I use regularly from downloads...used for business mostly plus a different browser. Others (maybe 20) just take up space for the occasional use like a game when I am delayed between flights.

Good points. If someone has the time to really use 100+ apps then God bless him. I for one have to look out for 3 little ones, so yes my schedule is tight. Do I think that there's room for improvement? Of course I do. I would love to see those big 5 apps and maybe a few more on the PB.

[dbwoo]

In the General tab, it saids I have 148 apps.
When I counted manually, I got over 300 apps. (133 are games)

Hmmm…I wonder if this general tab is including ones that you have already uninstalled. It is giving me a higher number of apps than what I counted.

[Chaddface]

For most it will show more then the icons you count. I think the number was 46. There was a thread about it recently and Peter explain the reason but I don't recall the thread title.
