Track iPhone app price drops through RSS
The next time you’re on the fence about whether or not to purchase an app and price is a factor, here is a simple way to watch for a price drop. App store games and applications seem to drop in price much more quickly than most other pieces of software so it’s often worth it to wait a couple of weeks. Apps often drop $5-$10 in practically no time!
I created this Yahoo Pipe which asks for the app name and generates an RSS feed that will update whenever the price of the app decreases. I myself could probably have saved $20-30 up to this point if I weren’t so impulsive!
Which apps should you start tracking? Of course, I have a few suggestions (in no particular order). For your convenience, I have already linked the titles to their respective price drop feeds. The feeds will appear empty unless a recent price drop has occurred.
- Baseball Superstars- Popular baseball game available on several mobile platforms
- Guitar Rock Tour- Rhythm game akin to Tap Tap Revenge
