Sometime early this morning, Apple quietly unleashed the genius section of the iPad app store, something that’s been in the iPhone app store for quite some time. It’s interesting how Apple is always “quietly” releasing new things, while making a big to-do about others. What’s also interesting is how a new feature in the app store can be made without a software update.
Not only does the new genius section of the iPad app store provide the same type of recommendations as with the iPhone, there’s a new tab titled “iPad Upgrades,” which shows you all of the iPad (aka, “HD”) versions of the iPhone apps you already have. This is a great new feature for both consumers and app developers because, previously, there was no easy way to know.
Thanks for everyone who sent this in!
