Apple has announced that after nearly five years it has paid out $10 billion to developers, with $5 billion coming in the last year.
The company has also announced that it has paid out three times more to developers than all the other platforms’ app stores combined. This includes Android, Windows Phone, BlackBerry and, presumably, Windows 8.
There are also 900,000 apps available in the Apple App Store. What’s amazing about this stat is that among those, there are 375,000 apps created specifically for the iPad.
