Rising Popularity of Third Party App Stores

-
Smartphone today is an inseparable part of our life, today we cannot even imagine a day without our phone, internet and apps plays the most important part in that. What is a smart phone without app being installed?  It is like a temple without devotee.

App acts as a savior in our day to day life, starting from getting breaking news and other relevant information’s till checking out train and airport schedule, connecting our friends online till ending up playing games, we all depend on some or the other mobile app.

In India the most popular app is WhatsApp, followed by Facebook and UC News, when it comes to game how anyone can avoid Clash of Clans, Subway Surfers, Pokémon Go and Candy Crush .

Third Party app store plays a vital role in this as well, a third-party app store is an app market not owned or controlled by the owner of the operating system it is a place where you can download apps, games, music and a host of other virtual goods, but it's not owned by Google, Windows or BlackBerry. In India the most popular third-party app stores includes GetJar, SlideMe, 9Apps, Samsung App Store and Amazon App store for Android.

Benefits of using a third party app stores is there is no restriction on downloading apps as compared to those who uses Apple or any Microsoft devices. In such device they will find a limitation in their official stores and third party app plays a role of savior in such cases. Third party stores also let developer target specific audience, which is not really possible through Google play stores or any branded play stores. This is the only reason why people prefer third party apps as they get the freedom to access and download anything they wish to. The most interesting thing in a third party play store is that it doesn’t have any age group specification, people of all ages can download app as they wish according to the user requirement, this facility also does not compromise with the quality of the app and people don’t even need to pay for it.

What I liked about third party app is that it is an alternative to download the apps and games that too without any registration. So unlike Google play where you have to login from your Google account, you can directly download the apps without any prior registration. This is a useful feature as people like to have freedom and Third party app is providing them that liberty to download any apps as per the convenience of the user.

In India, 9Apps is one of the most visited third-party app stores for Android apps. This third-party app store has now 140 million monthly active users. This is a very huge number of active users on a third party app store and the growing popularity of this is just because of the services active users are extracting from such app stores.

Chaos, Coach and Cricket

They call cricket a gentlemen’s game, ever since I started watching cricket I was forced to believe so, I have observed gentlemen from many countries and was shocked to see how they defined the term. Born and brought up in England, this game is now played in over 20 countries and out of them 12 countries is honored with the status of playing Test cricket which happens to be the most prestigious format of the game. It is said that 11 players a side is mandatory to play the game but recently my observation says that not only 11 players but also the support staff and coaches are as valuable as the players are, it is not a new concept though, we all are aware of the fact that every team has their own set of support staff in every department like batting , bowling, fielding and also a special team is dedicated to look after the players fitness, but never in my imagination I could think that those departments will be manipulated by a set of lobbyist or in a cruel sense I can call them...
