    Default Genius for Apps

    I've never turned on Genius for Apps until today. It recommended apps that I had no interest in. Does anybody actually have it turned on? Do you find it useful to find quality apps to your liking?

    It just usually promotes what Apple wants to promote. Not useful to me and I had used it for a while.

    Agreed. If you train it and say not interested it does get better

    Genius for Apps is a virus that will destroy whatever device on which you enable it. Don't do it.

    Yeah I have to admit once Genius gets to know your interests the app recommendations get better and better

    So they know where you've been.
