To give more of a background, Apple acquired Chomp on February 23, 2012. You can see screenshots of the horizontal card based interface here from the original Chomp app: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/chomp/id348286549?mt=8 http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/chomp/id348286549?mt=8 IMHO, the team at Chomp has too much power over the App Store. Apple comparatively few acquisitions per year so I wouldn't be surprised if the Chomp team totally took over App Store search. As an indie developer I'm hoping someone at Apple is seeing the iOS 6 app download before and after results and isn't happy about the trends. In the recent keynote, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that 90% of the over 700k apps in the App Store are downloaded every month. I don't see that happening anymore with the current state of the App Store.
