In 2010, the American Dialect Society chose
“app” as the word of the year. “App” is short for
“application.” It’s a program for an electronic
device like a smartphone or a tablet computer. There
are more than 425,000 apps that can be downloaded
for entertainment, shopping, sports scores, and
anything else you might be interested in.
Apps are so popular because they can be used almost
anywhere – commuting on a bus, waiting in a doctor’s
office, or hanging out at the mall. All you need is
your smartphone. You don’t need to log into your
computer or into a website. You don’t have to set
up your video game console. You don’t even need a
Wi-Fi connection.
Most smartphones can hold hundreds of apps, and
you can use more than one app at a time. For instance,
you can use a navigation app to find a new restaurant,
a dining app to look at the restaurant’s menu, and a
weather forecast app to decide what to wear to the
restaurant – all at the same time.
One of the most popular gaming apps, Pokémon GO,
has been downloaded 100 million times. In 2016,
within 24 hours of its release, it became the biggest
selling gaming app of 2016 and soon had 21 million
daily active users in the U.S.A. alone. The Apple Store
began selling apps in 2008 with nearly one billion sold.
From June 2015 to June 2016, nearly 30 billion apps
were sold at an average price of $1. Not only are apps
popular – they can be very profitable.
