Apptizr, an online iPhone application discovery site, has launched its public beta. Previously in a private beta, it is now available to anyone for free. The goal of the website is to provide its users with App Store recommendations based upon your unique likes, interests and tastes. I had a chance to use the website recently and was quite impressed.
The initial sign-up on Apptizr can be a bit time-consuming, depending upon how much time you’re willing to put into it. The more information you provide Apptizr with, the more accurate the recommendations will be. It took me about 10 minutes to get through the initial account registration and preferencing survey. That wasn’t too bad. Immediately after signing in, you’re presented with a welcoming “Recommended Apps for” screen which gives you a, rather complete, list of recommendations. You also have the option to tell Apptizr which applications you already have, giving them even more knowledge into your application preferences.
