I use Minireview to get game recommendations to bypass searching through the play store

What was Heartless Ansem's famous quote again? Oh yeah. "And now darkness within darkness awaits you." But ads instead of darkness.

I use a shortcut for "My ~~ads~~ apps" so that I don't go through the home screen when I want to get updates; sadly, it wouldn't help when searching for new apps.
