Apple has just pushed a substantial update to the revamped App Store app on iOS 6. The update, which is made effective by Apple’s server side and doesn’t require a new iOS 6 beta, brings a couple of notable changes.
Apple's iOS App Store appears to be down for many users around the world, meaning countless Apple fans are currently unable to download or update applications either on their iDevice, or from within iTunes on a desktop computer.
Early this month, Apple, through an email sent to iOS developers, effectively announced the introduction of a "Food & Drink" App Store category "in the next few weeks." Well, it appears that the tail end of that time frame has transpired.
The respective release notes for the upcoming updates of a small number of apps were leaked beginning a couple of days ago. This minor yet nonetheless interesting incident happened on account of a bug that affected the revamped App Store app currently accessible on iOS 6 beta. But as noted by 9to5Mac, which first reported on the issue as well, it appears that the bug has been fixed.
Moments ago, Apple closed their online store. In other words, the stage is now being set for today’s Worldwide Developers Conference keynote, which begins at 1 p.m. EDT!
