I'd be happier with the pricing if there were any apps worth having these days. The top 100 lists are like 90% garbage, 10% social media which may or may not also be garbage.

If I get bored sometimes I'll look for a new app or game and end up closing the app without downloading anything. It's all just complete garbage games and in-app purchases.

Same thing here. I miss the early app store when there were a lot of good games. Now the only decent native mobile game is Bloons TD 6. But even that has micro transactions.

I miss the days of Tower Madness

The best games are ports to be honest. I recently downloaded Peglin, which is supposedly a pc port. It has a free trial and no IAPs and is an entertaining little timekiller.

Remember Free App A Day? That was my favorite time for the appstore.
