Q&A: How much data is used when getting a free app from the Android Market?

by osde8info

I just bought a motorola backflip, and I have the cheaper data plot (around 15 dollars a month). I want to get some of the free apps from the Android Market, but I’m worried that downloading them will use a large amount of data.
Can I install free apps without using a large amount of data?
Can I install them using wifi and not have to worry about using data?

THANK YOU.

The amount of data you use depends on the size of the app. You can usually see the size of the app listed when you press the app name on the Market.

But, if you use wi-fi, the point is moot, since you don’t get charged for data using your own wi-fi or at some hotspot. If you have a cap on your data, using wi-fi when possible is a fantastic thought.

So, that’s what my first Android app looks like.

I should tidy it up and release the sources. It’s a very crappy basic Twitter client using a second thread for the HTTP stuff.

Where can I find the end song to the anime show Android Kikaider? It was kinda a sad slow ending but I really cant remember. If it makes any difference Im talking about the english version of the show that was on Adult Swim. So yeah the english version of the ending song to Android Kikaider.
