App Store Promotion Offers 100 Apps and Games at a Discount

by

Apple is running a massive App Store promotion this week, discounting a total of 100 apps to $0.99. Apps are split into categories, such as "Smart Tools for Everyone," "Apps for Photography Lovers," "Apps for Kids," "Game Hits," "App Store Veterans," and more.

Many of the apps included in the sale are popular selections like Pixelmator, Facetune, Retromatic, and GoodReader. Games on sale span several genres and include titles like BADLAND, Shadowmatic, Goat Simulator, and Radiation Island. More than half of the apps on sale are games, and many are worth purchasing at just $0.99.

Separately, Apple is also celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, highlighting a wide range of various accessibility apps organized into categories like "Vision," "Hearing," "Speech, and More. This App Store section doesn't feature apps on sale, but it is a great way to find specialized apps.

Apple's App Store promotions typically last for a full week, from Thursday to Thursday, so the 100 apps sale should last until next Thursday when the App Store is updated again.

I grabbed Pixelmator and already owned a few.

Most of them don't appeal to me, but I still get excited like a little kid when there's an app sale! :D
I remember when I got my first iOS device, I always saved my iTunes credit until a holiday when there would likely be sales so I could be a "thrifty" shopper!

Are the developers still getting their original cut, or are they also subsidizing Apple's promo?
