Apple says that 629,000 have either been created by the company, or are supported by it. The part the App Store plays in this is given extra attention, with 497,000 jobs alone attributed to the Store. Over $6.5 billion has been paid to developers based in Europe, and the App Store is responsible for billions of dollars in revenues to Europe's GDP, according to
