Apple has announced that its App Store has now hit 10 billion downloads since it launched in July 2008. Paper Glider, made by Cirencester-based iPhone App developer Neon Play was downloaded by Gail Davis from Orpington in Kent. She was rewarded with a $10,000 (£6,250) Apple gift card. Apps have found remarkable popularity among users of all Apple’s 160 million compatible devices, with Facebook’s free app the most popular. Gaming, however, has become a mainstay thanks to the iPhone and IPod’s sensitive touchscreens. Of the top 10 paid-for apps, nine are currently games, and Doodle Jump is the most popular paid iPhone app of all time. |
