Android Market update adds app compatibility, still needs workThe Android Market is a work in progress. Yesterday Google updated its application store to include a list compatible handsets beneath each title. Although screening was previously available while browsing on an Android smartphone, the update is particularly useful for those who browse and install via the web store.

Unfortunately Google made one major omission with the update. They forgot to include a filter for Honeycomb apps. As an Android tablet owner I cannot begin to explain my frustration in finding quality Honeycomb-optimized apps. We are no closer to solving the issue today than we were several months ago when 3.0 launched.

The update Google has made to the Android Market is a shift in the right direction, but much like iOS 5 — it’s a necessary step. Let’s hope Google steps up to the plate and throws Honeycomb users a bone with a simple filter.
