Store specialist predicts segment will reach an early peak this year, and mature in a decade.
The chief executive of the mobile application store Getjar, Ilja Laurs has stated his belief that apps will be “as big if not bigger than the internet.”
Speaking at San Fransisco’s MobileBeat conference, Laurs predicted that they will peak this year at around 100,000 available apps, before seeing a gradual decline in development.
“The full blossom will come in ten years and mobile apps will become as popular as websites are today with consumers," Laurs told the BBC.
