HeadCar

[sstrong]

I've just released a new App to the Store called HeadCar. Let me know what you think. Always happy to make improvements.

You should have a free version too... or maybe a Try button...

Has any App developers had any experience with offering a Trial period? Did it help or do people just trial a myrad of apps but rarely buy? At the lowest price possible on the Store I figure HeadCar is already cheap enough.

I can't tell you how many apps I have tried before buying. It doesn't matter much the cost in some peoples minds.

A trial definitely helps. There are very few apps that I have bought without a decent trial.

I agree....

If you don't want to put in a trial, put up a video at least how it looks, plays, works, or whatever. It's not the cost for me, 1c or $100 doesn't matter, but it's my principle not to buy anything I will find crappy later on. I feel it's a trap. I paid for many apps, even on my previous iPhone, but there are apps I'm not willing to pay for, such as Board Express.

I hope the OP is watching.

An example of superbly written, presented, and useful application is Cocktail flow. I have it on all my devices to demonstrate how good an app that is so simple and yet useful and beautiful.

I will not buy any app that I can't try first, I have to like it in order to buy it and it's not something that I can base on visuals. If it's a good app or game people will buy it, if it's just ok or worse people will feel they got duped and won't buy any new future releases you have.

I have bought a few apps that did not include a trial, but when there are issues that I don't like and there is no trial, my rating and review reflects that. If there is a trial, I will test out the app and if there are issues or feedback, I will usually email the developer to provide my comments in a less public forum. There are a lot of great developers who I've found to be genuinely interested in the critique and receptive to improving their product if it's something that is possible and I know that no product is perfect for everyone. With no trial the rating and reviews are all people have to make their decision.
