[Mashable] Share iPhone Apps Easily with AppSnap

Here’s a handy app featured on Mashable’s Spark of Genius series today.

Ever got a great app that you want to tell your friends about? Or a friend recommended an app to you but you just can’t seem to find the right one on the App Store? (App search can get complicated if you have different region stores selected or misspellings etc.) Now you can do all that easily (and trouble-free) with a snap!

AppSnap allows you to search for an app in the App Store with just a snapshot of the app icon (whether it’s on another iPhone or on a computer). The app will scan the image and return a list of matching apps, which you can then choose to install or share with friends via Email, Twitter, and Facebook.

Of course, such an app does not come for free. AppSnap costs US$1.99 on the App Store. Mmm.. certainly a “could have” app – a smart tool at an affordable price. Personally, I am dubious about buying apps that I know I’m likely to use once every few months. So you will have to judge for yourselves, always ask yourself these questions – Do I need it? How badly do I need it? Is the price justified against my needs?
