Apple starts counting down to 25 Billion App Store Downloads
Very similar to the 10 billion download countdown that Apple initiated just last year, Apple has now announced another promotion celebrating the 25 billionth download from the App Store. As the huge milestone draws near, Apple is encouraging customers to enter to win a $10,000 App Store gift card for hitting the lucky number. Apple says:
As of today, nearly 25 billion apps have been downloaded worldwide. Which is almost as amazing as the apps themselves. So we want to say thanks. Download the 25 billionth app, and you could win a US$10,000 App Store Gift Card.* Just visit the App Store and download your best app yet.
If you don’t want to download an App, you cam also manually fill out an official entry form to be considered. Anyone who downloads an app from the App Store will also be entered automatically. Apple notes that “the downloading of the 25 billionth app is considered to be either the downloading of the 25 billionth app from the App Store or the receipt of the non-purchase entry after the download of the 24,999,999,999th app, whichever comes first.”
Which App are you currently downloading, and what apps would you download if you won the $10,000?
