Download the Mobihand App Store

If you are like me and are always downloading apps, then like me you may feel that the Blackberry's app store does not have the biggest range of apps and soon you want more than what they have to offer, well Mobihand is an alternative app store that has thousands of free and paid apps alike. Mobihand sorts all the apps into categories and has a featured screen, deal of the day screen, hottest apps and newest apps and of course the ability to search Mobihand App Store. There is also a screen for top 50 free and paid apps, so you can see what apps other people like and best of all Mobihand App Store is free to download.
To download Mobihand just click on the "Learn about the app store" button on the right.
