Success of iPhone and Its App Store
The story of Apple's iPhone is an impressive one and more interesting is the iPhone application development that took place when iPhone came up with its App store.
When Apple introduced iPhone to the market it lived up to its name and delivered the users an incredible experience via their iPhones.
The hand sets were not only smart to look at and but also smart to work with.
The easy to use fluid functions made it quite a hit with those who cherished the brand experience and soon it hit off with smart phone lovers.
Before iPhone raised the standard for smart phones there were other smart phones available but nothing compared to the high end features and functionality it brought along.
Blackberry became the choice for business oriented people while iPhone managed to spread its use for all categories.
The App store complimented and facilitated development of iPhone apps.
App store was to cut 30 percent of all sales for mobile applications.
Within no time App store managed to increase its market share adding to the overall revenue for iPhone.
App store found a lot of appreciation from developers who found a platform for the development and distribution of their applications.
It was not only appreciation that iPhone got but it also met a lot of negative criticism for having strict entry policies as many applications deemed not fit for the user were rejected.
Although the platform has had its share of criticism in the past and was accused of being a walled garden but such criticisms never discouraged the developers opting for this platform.
Software engineers, developers could easily create their own applications for iPhone and have a platform for marketing that could earn them make big money.
There have been many iPhone developers who have set such examples and have made it big in the market.
Going by their success stories the developers are invigorated to hit the jackpot.
According to Lookout firm offering security services for smart phones, the statistics for the App store developers are around 24,000 for the time period August 2010 till February 2011.
In comparison the Android market attracted 4000 developers only.
These facts clearly show the trend of the market and the shift of developers who are finding the App store a more compelling platform.
Most of the applications available at App store today are by third party developers.
With the likes of Rovio and other successful developers iPhone applications development is sure to see some more competition.
