Apple CEO Steve Jobs has just announced another amazing cloud feature - iOS applications stored in the cloud.

A massive 400,000 iOS applications are now available to download in Apple’s App Store.

The App Store appears down...worldwide!

The App Store now controls 59 percent of the global app market, according to a new Research2Guidance report. Apple’s app share has dropped 22 percent since 2008, mainly due to the introduction of the Android Market. However, it will be the next two years that determines who will lead for years to come.

According to a variety of reports, Apple has recently approved the App Store's 500,000th iOS application, meaning that the company has approved half a million apps in just 34 months.

Fuzz Alert is an app that literally warns drivers of potential speed and law enforcement checkpoints. One such law enforcement checkpoint got the app a lot of negative attention by politicians; and even prompted Apple to look into the matter. That culprit was a DUI checkpoint. The app allows users to pinpoint these spots; four senators, along with RIM, want it gone.

The App Store launched in 2008 with a collection of around 500 apps. At the time about 1/4 of all the apps were freebies. We have seen thousands of apps released since then. In this AppList we take a look at the App Store classics: which apps came out on launch day and continue to be great additions to any iPhone.

Apple has tweaked the App Store once again. Now, users who download an iOS application using a promo code can not review that app in iTunes.

Android might soon have more apps on offer than Apple, but that data doesn't mean much without a little bit of perspective.

The App Store's total app count may be dethroned soon, but all the money's still in iOS.

A lawsuit has been filed against Apple for allowing kids to make in-app purchases without parental permission. The suit, filed by Garen Meguerian of Pennsylvania, blames Apple for "unlawful exploitation of children."

Apple’s list of the Top Paid and Top Free apps in the App Store has been expanded, at least on an iPhone/iPod touch. Now, instead of maxing out at No. 50, the list goes to up to No. 300.

What's the difference between a paid iOS app and a free one? One has a much larger backstage community than the other. Take a look at what really goes on behind that rectangular group of changing pixels.

Apple, Amazon.com, and Microsoft are fighting over two little words: "app store." Is it a generic term or something more?

Apple kills another app because it wouldn't use the company's new subscription feature. However, the team behind the app are fighting back and saying Apple's policy "smacks of greed." Do you agree?

Previously, we told you about an annoying problem affecting select iTunes users when they attempt to make new purchases using the service. As if by random, certain purchases are being denied, while others are accepted. Now Apple has responded to this issue.

Loyal iTunes fans are being denied access to some purchases. What's going on here?

For all its greatness, the App Store has always had one annoying flaw: Apple makes it difficult to check for past purchases. Unfortunately, a new feature has made this all the more confusing, because it appears to have a costly flaw.

If it hasn't been obvious enough, the new "hot button" topic making its way through news and blog sites is the launch of Apple's App Store subscription service. The service isn't breaking news but the new tone it has brought along with it has started a slew of angry outbursts.

As some eagle eyed users may have already noticed, Apple gave the iPhone App Store some aesthetic refinements today.

With The Daily landing in the App Store today, Apple needed to update customers on what the new in-app subscription ability required and how to manage it. We'll go over the details with you, before that need to tap or click that all-important Agree button.

Apple's official App Store Twitter account launched early this afternoon to see followers come in torrents. Within only a few hours of launch, @AppStore has already landed over 50,000 followers and counting. Check out the rest of the story for more details!

Two months ago, Apple approved, then quickly pulled iDos, a full-blown DOS emulator for iOS. This amazing app allowed a user to transfer any DOS app they wanted to their iOS device and run it, including old school games.
