Loading ...Apple: 100,000 apps, 2 billion downloads
Cupertino (ip-192.com): Apple seems to have something to celebrate: 100,000 apps ready to improve on every user’s iPhone and/or iPod Touch experience, and 2 billion downloads in just over 15 months. This for sure makes the Apple App Store the largest and busiest e-commerce site in the world. The App Store launched in July 2008 with just 500 downloadable applications and is now available in 77 countries.
There are now more than 125,000 developers in Apple’s iPhone developer program. The company has sold more than 50 million iPhones and iPod Touch handhelds, according to its last quarterly report. The top download category is games with over 21,000 apps available, followed by entertainment and books.
At this time, real competitors are few. Google’s Android platform, which ranks number 2, has 10,000 applications available for download.
