App Store Loses Free iPhone Filters

Okay. I overlooked the fact that Apple have done some futzing with Safari Mobile where clearly it wasn’t needed. But this … this simply will not do.

For the last two days something odd was going on with the App Store. Whenever I clicked on the filter for “All Free Apps,” all apps from September 16th onwards were mysteriously missing. The apps were still there, but it was like the category filter for free apps wasn’t catching anything newer than that. “Odd,” I thought, and kept on working.

Now, I’ve found out why. Apple has quietly removed the option from the App Store entirely, along with the “All iPod Touch Apps” and “All iPhone Apps” filters. Just take a look at the screenshot on your left. Those filters simply aren’t there.

This hits me particularly hard because, as you all know, I do regular installments of the Free App Store Review, and that particular filter enabled me to see all the latest freebies in the App Store with one simple click. Made my job a hell of a lot easier, that did. Now I can’t do that. Now I have to go hunting through every motherfreakin’ category one-by-one and sift through everything to find out what’s new in the land of no-money-down apps.
