Windows Phone Store breaks 150,000 apps

Windows Phone Store breaks 150,000 apps

Slightly hidden in Todd Brix’s announcement from this morning was the news that the Windows Phone Store has passed 150,000 apps.

The statement reads:

Over the last year we’ve certified and published over 75,000 new apps and games (more than doubling the catalog size)

… which gives us a total of more than 150,000 apps in the Windows Phone store.

As can be seen from the graph above, the acceleration brought on by the launch of Windows Phone 8 is very clear, and with the steadily increasing audience size drawing in developers I think it will not be too long before we cross 200,000 apps also.

Will the store then finally get some respect?
