AppList goes from strength to strength, though I'd still class the client and service as being in beta. Today sees version 1.0 Build 281 released (it'll get offered as an in-app upgrade, don't worry), with this changelog:
- Added displaying app size to the 'Detail' page
- Pressing Enter on Search page starts search
- Added logic to check if enough drive space is available for the download to succeed
- Added option to view full changelog history (in 'About AppList' section)
- Homescreen widget: Fixed launching AppList from the widget icon (thanks to huellif)
- Homescreen widget: Fixed negative new apps count
- Added French, Hungarian and Italian UI translations (thanks to Erwan, dankoi and Bruno)
- Fixed updating apps in the Nokia Store
- Added unsigned flag to requests to display apps that are only released as unsigned
- Fixed wrong update count in the bubble & widget
- Added further languages and updated ISO codes for languages (you may need to re-check your language settings)
Here are some screens of AppList in action today on my Nokia 808 PureView:
The homescreen widget (refreshed every 24 hours even if you don't open the app) will let you know of updates and new apps listed - in theory, anyway; (right) the opening list of latest apps and games for Symbian
