app store
To celebrate the fifth birthday of its App Store, Apple is offering free downloads of five games and five apps for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch until next week.
In five short years Apple have grown to dominate the app market, growing from a mere 500 available apps at launch to over 900,000.
The App Store surpassed 100 million app downloads by the September of 2009, and has continued to grow ever since. The launch of the first iPad in 2010 created an entirely new platform, allowing a greater degree of movement and dexterity for gameplay. Users could play and interact with their apps on a larger screen for the first time, with games topping both the free and paid for app charts.More than 800 apps are downloaded every second, equating to over two billion apps downloaded every month. Check out some of the free downloads you can snag for a limited time only below.
