App developer Stream Media has updated its Applorer Android game recommendation app to include new categories, customised profiles, friend recommendations and user ‘circles’.

The refreshed app shows what games the friends of users are playing to provide more accurate app suggestions and allows users to create or join ‘circles’ or communities based around those games.

The free app, which was launched nine months ago, already includes player history – such as usage data and app interactions – and reviews to help them find the best games.

“Developers are constantly looking for new ways to inject social interaction into their games to increase engagement and, ultimately, monetization,” said Stream Media CEO and founder Chua Zi Yong.
