That's a good idea. The App Store, in Apple's example, has been seriously lacking a comprehensive bug reporting/support system. It would be interesting to see a third party take it on; after all, AdMob took on iOS advertising before Apple did. This is certainly something that could be done in a similar fashion.

I haven't seen anything out there yet like this (maybe it exists, though). Seems to me like it could have a lot of potential - especially if it worked across iOS/Android/WP, had various statistics, etc.

Seriously if such thing does not exist for mobile I'm sad. I'm so used to file bug reports on Fedora with abrt.

Thing is. If the app stores do not do anything about it. The only way to do something for it is to do it yourself and stop complaining about lack of customer support support.

Exactly. And beyond the sheer usefulness of it, it's a potential business opportunity.

Yep. Like I stated in the post. I would do it myself If I had Android or iPhone, but phone for me is phone so old shitty Nokia is enough for me.
