Hi folks, I'm new here and I discovered the site whilst searching for an Android Subway card app (I used to have it installed in my old Nokia 5530). Now, I've added it to my profile, but, for the life of me I can't figure out how to download it to my HTC Wildfire.

Thanks in advance. I'm from the UK.

Click on the "App Center" link in my signature below to install the App center version of AndroidPIT..

Thank you justJay, I assume I transfer this to my phone?

That is likely, as your phone has a small display (only 320 x 240) which many app developers do not support with their apps. Is price an issue for you, and do you have the option to return the phone for another model? The HTC Wildfire's display will likely continue to be a problem when looking for apps that you want.

The apps I am looking to add are no more than 2.5. My Samsung Replenish is said to not be compatible. Now I am stuck with an Android that will not work. One of the Apps I need for my business. If my screen is the problem then an operating system with 2.3 will not matter. Can you help?

Sorry, I didn't completly understand your problem. You are trying to download apps for your Replenish but cannot because they are not compatable with your phone did I understand that correctly? If so then it is most likely due to your screen small size and not the version number of your operating system. If that is the case then there isn't much you can do other then look for a supported app or trade up to a new phone that is compatable with your phone. :(
