App Store Booming
The 2015 Holiday season was good for Apple in a few ways, one of them being that it was the biggest ever for the App Store. How big is big, you ask? Well, big happens to be $1.1 billion spent on Apps and in-app purchases over a 2 week period ending January 3rd.
That’s big.
On New Years day alone, customers spent over $144 million dollars.
From the Sauce, Apple marketing chief Phil Schiller;
“The App Store had a holiday season for the record books. We are excited that our customers downloaded and enjoyed so many incredible apps for iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and Apple TV, spending over $20 billion on the App Store last year alone.
We’re grateful to all the developers who have created the most innovative and exciting apps in the world for our customers. We can’t wait for what’s to come in 2016.”
Apple said it has now created over 1.4 million jobs attributable to app development and non-IT jobs supported by the app ecosystem.
Apps, huh. Who knew?
