The App Store Success and Developers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Two weeks after the conclusion of the Epic Games v. Apple trial over the latter\u2019s allegedly anticompetitive app store policies, Apple used its WWDC keynote to defend these policies and tout the App Store\u2019s success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSince the beginning, we designed the App Store to be a safe and trusted place,\u201d Ann Thai, Director of App Store Product Marketing told viewers during the keynote, adding that \u201cusers can just focus on finding the right app, knowing Apple has reviewed every app to make sure it meets our high standards for security, privacy, and safety.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thai also revealed that the App Store serves nearly 600 million visitors a week and that Apple has paid out more than $230 billion to app developers since the App Store\u2019s inception in 2008.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That figure has grown from $155 billion in January 2020, an acceleration helped in part by the introduction of the App Store Small Business Program, which reduces Apple\u2019s commission from 30 to 15 percent for developers making less than $1 million a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple claims that the app industry has created more than 1.5 million jobs each in the United States and across Europe since 2008 in what could be described as the 21st-century gold rush.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While Apple understandably likes to emphasize the success that third-party developers are having on the App Store, the company participates in that success to no small extent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Assuming an average commission rate between 20 and 30 percent, Apple probably raked in between $20 and $30 billion in-app store commissions since January 2020, making apps a central pillar of its quickly growing services segment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
