Apple has announced that over three billion iPhone/iPod touch applications have been downloaded from the App Store since it’s official launch in on July 10th 2008.
Here is the customary Steve Jobs quote:
“Three billion applications downloaded in less than 18 months — this is like nothing we’ve ever seen before,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. “The revolutionary App Store offers iPhone and iPod touch users an experience unlike anything else available on other mobile devices, and we see no signs of the competition catching up anytime soon.”
What makes these numbers so impressive, is the very rapid growth being seen. Just three months ago Apple reached the two billion download mark. This coupled with steady growth in iPhone and iPod touch sales, make this a combo to be reckoned with. The App Store is available in 77 countries and offers applications in 20 categories.
