There are categories of apps, one category is "top paid ", another is "top free".

I typically just type something like, for instance, "alarms" in the search box and a lot of apps related to that search will presented. Each app will show itself to either be a free or paid app.

There are free and paid sections of the market. 

 

also if you find an app via a search of the market, the button will say 'Install' for free, or a price for paid. If you miss the cost portion, there is another verification screen that you have to press through to pay for an app.

Actually, if you purchase a paid app, you can have it charged to a credit card. I don't think you can have it charged to your Verizon bill.

hi all!

 

i sooo appreciate the replies. its very good 2 kno there's ample support 4 my phone.

 

i need 2 clarify a bit though on my question ......

 

i c the titles 'free' & 'paid' on the top of the market page. i wanted 2 know if after i buy the app, how do i know if it goes to my monthly bill or not???

 

for example, the 'mobile hotspot' is an app that gets a $20 charge to my credit card according to the verizon wireless person i talked to. i asked her if i get charged for the navigation app - she said no. when asked 4 a list of what gets on my monthly bill or not, she couldn't find anything. hence my post here.

 

thanks 4 the help!!

Mobile hotspot is on ur monthly bill it isent automatic to ur credit card unless u pay by credit card.
Google maps is free
Vz naz is on ur bill if u accept to have it.
Anything preloaded will tell u if it is monthly charge if u accept like visual voicemail.
