This Is The Ultimate App Store Infographic

Sure, we have seen infographics about the App Store before. But right ahead of the iTunes Connect holiday shut down and with more than 50,000 iPad apps out in the wild – this is the only one you need to look at now.

Created by the folks over at App of the Day and available in its full-size glory here, the infographic provides a lot of insight into the mechanics of Apple’s App Store for the iPhone and iPad. For instance, out of 300,000+ apps 67% are paid and 33% are free apps. Of all apps, 50% are between $0.99 and $2.99. A stunning 85% is made of iPhone apps (not a surprise, considering the iPhone has been around since 2008) and 8% are universal apps.

There are 62,126 unique developers selling software in the App Store, with apps that carry an average price of $2.43. Oh, and those reviews people seem to love so much? Three-stars is the average rating. The official Facebook app is the only one with more than 1,000,000 ratings.

Again, App of the Day’s infographic is full of numbers and interesting details. It also looks great. Check it out here.
