Hi all!

Q: What app do you prefer: paid full versions, or lite for free?
I mean, how important for you is it to have the opportunity to test free?

Q: How often do you buy the application without testing of lite or trial?

Personally, I never buy an app without trying out the free version before. I think that's very important. When buying stuff from the AndroidPIT App Center, I sometimes rarely pay for the whole thing in full without trying out the lite version because of their 24 hour return policy. Anything that I get from the Google Market I always play around with before buying because of their ridiculous 15 minute return policy.

are you just curious or looking into developing some apps?

Hi! Tnks for an answer.
I'm not just curious - just in search of new market places for that and more apps
And thinking about trials.

Oh i see. well, like i said having a lite version is always super important for me. That really helps me make my decision. Fromt the point of the developer, it's probably less of a money maker (although if i like something and i need the full version i'll buy it). I think it's about finding the balance between showing what the app can do in the lite version without giving the whole thing away.
