The Electronic AppWrapper was the first commercial electronic software distribution catalog to collectively manage encryption and provide digital rights for apps and digital media (issue #3 was the app store originally demonstrated to Steve Jobs at NeXTWorld EXPO). The app store can also orchestrate monitoring and bug fixing to detect and repair crashes in applications. For instance, the app store can deliver a unique diversified version of the app for sake of security. Researchers have proposed new features for app stores. Some app stores provides feedback to developers: number of installations, issues in the field (latency, crash, etc.). These apps are inspected for compliance with certain guidelines (such as those for quality control and censorship), including the requirement that a commission be collected on each sale of a paid app. Many app stores are curated by their owners, requiring that submissions of prospective apps go through an approval process. Users can select the best apps based on ratings, developers get feedback on what features are praised or disliked and finally, app store owners can detect bad apps and malicious developers by automatically analyzing the reviews with data mining techniques. Those reviews are useful for other users, for developers and for app store owners. Īpp stores typically provide a way for users to give reviews and ratings.
Some app stores may also include a system to automatically remove an installed program from devices under certain conditions, with the goal of protecting the user against malicious software. The selected app is offered as an automatic download, after which the app installs. Critically, the application storefront itself provides a secure, uniform experience that automates the electronic purchase, decryption and installation of software applications or other digital media.Īpp stores typically organize the apps they offer based on: the function(s) provided by the app (including games, multimedia or productivity), the device for which the app was designed, and the operating system on which the app will run.Īpp stores typically take the form of an online store, where users can browse through these different app categories, view information about each app (such as reviews or ratings), and acquire the app (including app purchase, if necessary – many apps are offered at no cost).
An app store is any digital storefront intended to allow search and review of software titles or other media offered for sale electronically.
