ShopSavvy has been one of the most popular applications on Android Market since Day 1. But apparently, for a large number of users, ShopSavvy is missing from Android Market. The problem has been running for so long and so deep that ShopSavvy’s developers – Big In Japan – are asking for users to help them solve the problem.

Google can’t duplicate the problem. Neither can ShopSavvy folks. But Amazon recently reported the error and users have consistently been contacting the company about the missing app.

Is ShopSavvy on YOUR Android Market?

  • Open Android Market
  • Go to Applications > All Applications
  • Sort by Popularity

Is ShopSavvy there? Everything is fine for me – it appears as the 4th application.

  • Weather Channel
  • MySpace Mobile
  • Backgrounds
  • ShopSavvy
  • T-Mobile My Account
  • US Yellow Pages Search

If it DOESN’T appear for you, EMail them with a picture of the app missing on that screen and details about your phone/location/etc… probably wouldn’t hurt. Send it to: support@biggu.com

If you can’t get ShopSavvy on Android Market… you can download it here!

    This is a real problem for many apps on the Market, not just ShopSavvy. I am a developer for Android, and there have been many occasions where I cannot see my own apps on the Market. Even when you search by name or view my publisher ‘page’. I have written to Google repeatedly about this, receiving no response at all. Upon further investigation (comparing my list of apps in the Market to my girlfriends), I came to realize that there were MANY apps that I was not seeing.

    While I do not know the reason for this, I do know that I was able to again see these phantom apps after doing a factory reset on my G1. Not sure if this will solve ShopSavvy’s problem.

    As a developer and customer I hope to see this issue resolved (or at least acknowledged) soon.

    Nice to see I wasn’t the only one missing apps. We have 2 G1s. Each was able to view/DL apps that the other could not. What I noticed, firmware versions were different, 1.1 vs. 1.5. I manually updated the firmware on my other G1, because the OTA failed, and bing shopsavvy was available. BTW don’t try and call Tmobile to have them push an OTA, they have no clue, and cannot tell you how the OTA process works.
