Appbrain - No Install button when browsing on phone

I rarely browse Appbrain on my phone but the one time I remember not having the install button present it was because somehow I had become signed out of Appbrain.

Make sure you are signed in.

Not sure beyond that.

Thanks for reply

I am signed in, Tried signing out and back in again but no luck. Thing is im quite familiar with this app as ive used it quite heavily on my other android phone (which i no longer have). Never had this problem before....

When you browse using your Appbrain account from your PC does everything seem okay? Does it allow installs then?


Pretty odd...

Hi all, I have installed appbrain along with fast web installer

I cant see no install button when i click on an app description, this is whilst browsing on my phone (HTC WILDFIRE)

Anyone else have the same problem?

I noticed this the other day. Was useful when getting an app that was not on the Wildfire market and not near a PC.

My solution is to use the Skyfire browser in Desktop mode, the Install button will be there.

I am having this same problem..... there is no install / download button in appbrain any more.... there has to be a error or something , i can not understand why they would intentionally remove this install feature.. with out it the application is next to useless. Yea I know you can use a desktop or a PC, though imo that solution is usless, I mean the entire point of "smart" phons is to remove the need for large mobile computers. I do nto take a laptop around with me anymore
