Apple's App Store has always offered the most apps to users. But that could change.
Google announced yesterday that its Google Play store now offers 675,000 applications. Apple announced earlier this month that its store had 700,000 applications available.
Both Google's app marketplace and the App Store launched in 2008. However, as Inside Mobile Apps pointed out yesterday in its deep dive into the growth of both marketplaces, Apple's option has historically been the leader by a wide margin. In 2010, for example, Apple announced that it had reached 250,000 downloaded apps. Google's store, then known as the Android Market, didn't hit that tally until July 2011.
