App Store Reaches 100,000 Application Approvals

Michael Johnston · October 22nd, 2009, 03:52 PM

According to App Shopper, Apple has approved more than 100,000 apps for the App Store, 100,867 to be precise (at the time of writing this). Of course this number is somewhat misleading as there are only 92,310 currently live in the App Store. This is, of course, due to some applications either being pulled by their respective developers or by Apple. Regardless of this fact, it's pretty great to see how quickly the store has grown in just over one year.

Apple's most recently reported App Store download count was two billion with 85,000 apps in the store, reported in late September.

The App Store has been open for just over ONE year, not two. It launched with iPhone OS 2 in the summer of 2008.

You're right! I don't know what I was thinking...

Thanks!
