Unlike the iOS application store, the Mac App Store does not reach the 25.000 number of applications available to users. The Mac application store currently has 23.578 applications available in your catalog. These applications are nothing if we compare them with the more than 1,5 million applications available in the iOS store ...
The Mac store was announced about five years ago on October 20, 2010 at the Back to Mac event, after its announcement it took 3 months to officially appear and the Cupertino company launched its Mac App Store on January 6, 2011.
The Mac is far surpassed in number of applications by the iPad and obviously by the iPhone, both Apple devices require applications from the online app store to get the most out of them. In the case of Macs, we have the ability to use third-party tools, games and applications that are not available in the Mac App Store. This makes the number of applications available for Mac is greater, but we do not believe that in any case it exceeds those available for iOS.
Adding up all the available apps that Apple has thanks to the work of the developers, we arrive at the spectacular figure of 2.065.203 applications, the Mac being the one with the fewest applications in its catalog. Let's hope that little by little they continue to grow in number despite the applications we have.
30% commission, very rigid rules, ... possibility of installing applications in a traditional way, resistance to change, autocannibalization = I stay where I am
