Two reports from 2 different sources confirmed that Apple’s App Store now has whopping 250,000 plus applications as of today. This is obviously another major milestone for App Store, since it’s inception about 2 years ago, a number that undoubtedly will keep increasing in near future.
The first report is coming from 148Apps.biz which track that App Store now has 251,007 applications from 50,304 publisher. Another report from AppShopper.com, report the total apps now stood at 253,777 apps, including 24,334 for the iPad, not far from the figure reported by 148apps.biz.
Though this figure is unofficial, the number should pretty close with the actual figure in App store. Steve Jobs may have that answer on 1st September, when Apple is going to held special event to launch what could be the next gen of iPod and Apple TV.
