Browse applications in HP webOS App Catalog
Use HP webOS App Catalog to browse and download any of the many applications available for your smartphone. App Catalog contains both free apps and apps you can buy.
NOTE Applications you installed on your old Palm OS by ACCESS or Windows Mobile smartphone do not work on your HP Pre3, because your HP Pre3 uses the new HP webOS. Check App Catalog for a new version of your old favourites.
