Samsung owners, do you ever use the Galaxy app store?

So, for a while now, Samsung has been running its own app store — Galaxy Apps. Full of apps and games that you can usually find in Android's Play Store, as well as some Samsung exclusives. It's here that you can find the Edge panels for your curved-screen Sammy handset, and it's here that you download the Gear watchfaces and mini-apps.

But those things aside, we often wonder — is there really any reason to download your regular apps or games from the Samsung app store? It doesn't seem like promotions and price-drops are synced between the Play Store and Sammy store, and the former does have much more of those. Not to mention that the Play Store does inspire more confidence when it comes to regular updates.

So, do you use the Galaxy app store?
