yeah, i'm with @Haziq Mir, the inconsistent type and layout for each creates a bit of a compositional yardsale. the logos aren't aligned to any visual anchor (they are neither equally left-aligned nor center with each other), the appstore type is also fuzzy compared to the crispness of the two subsequent. i'd challenge branding requirements in favor of making your own work look good in this case.
the shadow on the widget itself feels right though.
Looks fantastic! I agree with what others have said, though. It feels like the icons should be horizontally centered in relation to each other, with the type left-aligned. The App Store text is attracting more attention because of its size too. Maybe a tad smaller?
@Kerem Suer The icons should be somehow leveled in terms of visibility ... The Apple Appstore clearly stands out. There is also an icon for the Windows Phone Marketplace you could use that. One other thing ... the download symbol for windows phone is not exactly pixel perfect... the arrow is not aligned with center of the circle or the gray horizontal line and the circle definitely has a .something coordinate in the PSD. Hope this helps.
@Kerem Suer Are these compliant? From my experience you can't modify the badges provided by the stores. I could be wrong and would love to be wrong on this. I'm currently working on something that uses the App Store, Google Play and App World.

Dropdown menu, Google play is the hover state.

Really nice. Looking forward to seeing more of this in context of the overall layout...

I'm bothered by the different icon dimensions. A little more spacing between the icons and the text, perhaps?

His intent (correct me if I'm wrong @Kerem Suer) was to use the recognized buttons for each platform.

Pretty sure all of that is the required spacing/sizing right? I know the app store is app standard and so is the google play.

gotta agree with others - the marketplace icons / text needs some work fersure.

Looks great, but are those some blurry edges I see or just the stroke color achieving that illusion?
