Poll: How likely are you to install phone apps?

I install whatever on a whim, whatever looks interesting or fun but I'll delete the second I found out it was not what I expected.

Added option.

The devices have their limits. We have those devices to make our life convenient. If we don't use the apps, it does not make sense to buy expensive phones that support so many features.

I increasingly avoid installing apps when I have an alternative, but it wasn't always so. Somehow I've managed to be an iOS app developer since the first retina iPod touch.

> I avoid installing apps when I can use a workstation or laptop with a bog standard web site.

Or a mobile browser. Most mobile apps are mobile websites wrapped in a skinned browser with more tracking added anyway. Installing the app makes no sense.
