National App Day 2023: On December 11, National App Day, celebrate the amazing world of apps, whether you want to tweet your ideas, snap a selfie for the gram, or always have your favorite music on hand. Apps have not only made life easier, but they have also produced a plethora of job opportunities for influencers, social media warriors, and developers.
The idea that there was a time before apps seems absurd to us now, and given their widespread use in modern society, it is even more astonishing that they haven’t been around for very long. Apps are available for computers, but most people use them on tablets and smartphones. These days, apps are used for even the most basic phone functions, like making calls and sending texts. These days, a lot of apps let users work from home with just a touch of their fingertips.
The London-based company Psion introduced the Psion Organiser in the 1980s, which is largely regarded as the first PDA device. While the Organizer didn’t have many features, it did have a text editor, calculator, agenda, and contacts. This established a standard for upcoming mobile app developments.
In 1983, visionary Steve Jobs was the one who initially proposed the concept of a “App Store.” He had an idea for a database where users could buy software over the phone. Apple launched the iTunes store concurrently with the release of their revolutionary iPod, laying the groundwork for the company’s future App Store. The initial iPhone was unveiled to the public in 2007, and the App Store followed a year later.
In the first few months after the App Store launched, only about 500 apps were available. Nonetheless, as smartphones became more common, so did app clients. These consist of Amazon’s App Store, BlackBerry’s App World, and Google Play for Android.
C.J. Thompson, the founder of Platinum Edge Media, a mobile marketing company, established National App Day in response to the over 175 billion app downloads that occurred in 2017. December 11 is designated as the day to celebrate and advance the culture of innovation and apps as a whole.
