What is National App Day?
On December 11th, National App Day encourages us to explore all of the possibilities that apps have to offer us.
When our mobile phones were equipped with smart technologies, applications such as Short for Software Application, appeared quickly. As the functionality of our phones increased with processing chips, internet connectivity, and touchscreens, so did the applications that were available.
Since that time, games have continued to influence how we work, live, and play. They provide opportunities, too, by the creation of thousands of new companies, millions of new employees, and billions of dollars in revenue.
With the introduction of Apple's iPhone in 2007, Apps accelerated in growth. Apple introduced OS 2.0 in 2008, which included approximately 500 applications and enabled third-party app development. A slew of applications for business, entertainment, gaming, marketing, recruitment, education, security, monitoring, and so much more can be found on both the Apple and Android platforms, as well as other aspects. And every day, programmers add thousands more.
Not only do apps keep us connected and organized, but applications that make our lives more active and changing lifestyles.
