But can you find the ones which are actually published by the BBC rather than some random 3rd party using their name?

A search for "Facebook" has a similar problem - loads of apps have it in the name but how do you find if there's official Facebook app.

Not sure why that is important. I would guess that the BBC doesn't have an app writing department like MS does. I'm quite sure developers sign a copyright agreement with them to use their articles and all there material. Yes?

If I install something on my computer, I want to be assured it is from a reputable source. I trust the BBC as a supplier of certain types of content, but I'd be much more careful about installing something from a company I've never heard of.

I know some parents that tortured their kids by taking them to see Tom in concert. :p

I saw Tom a few times when I was a kid! He was great, used to have his own TV show as well. It wasn't unusual for us to watch him :D

Still, could be worse... I could be using Android.

My sincere apology if that offended you. I can see where my sarcasm would do so at times. I really did mean it all in fun. I think Tom has a tremendous and powerful voice. One out of a million! In fact I wish I had it, but you know what they say about wishing.

BTW, Princess Diane, of whom I really admired, was a big fan of his and she truly had all the class in the world! :)

Of course I can't leave without more sarcasm. Being a little older, we watched those reality shows like Leave It To Beaver, Father Knows Best, and, of course, Lawrence Welk. Bubbles everywhere! :D
