This is quite an impressive number considering that App Store launched back in mid-2008 and it needed almost four years to reach 25 billion downloads. Currently, App Store has over 1.5 million apps and it does not come as a big surprise that it managed to reach 100 billion downloads, with over 25 billion downloads in last 12 months.

Many have criticized Apple for its App Store and while Google Play Store has reached 1.5 million apps earlier this year, it is those 1.5 million from Apple that matter and brought Apple to that 100 billion downloads number.
