At Apple’s keynote at Worldwide Developers Conference today, CEO Tim Cook took the stage to announce some milestones for Apple’s App Store as well as its retail store, noting that Apple has now paid developers over $10 billion.
Cook mentioned that the momentum of the App Store is “incredible,” with $5 billion being paid out in the past year. Cook also highlighted that the figure was “three times more than all other platforms combined.” Cook announced that the App Store has 575 million store accounts, saying that Apple thinks it has more accounts with credit cards than anyone else on the Internet.
Those accounts have downloaded 50 billion apps, with 900,000 apps and 93% of those apps downloaded each month.
In addition to its digital stores, Cook said that Apple’s retail stores have also seen success with 1 million visitors daily and 407 stores in 14 countries. Cook then introduced a video featuring the new Apple Store Kurfürstendamm in Berlin, which includes a renovated theater that Apple will use for events.
