New Windows 8 has 43000 applications, growth is disappointing

Microsoft had expected the number of applications to appear on the Windows Store warehouse would skyrocket in early 2013. However, the number 43000 proved the opposite.

According to MetroStore Scanner , an unofficial source tracks the number of applications posted to the Windows Store, the new Windows Store currently has nearly 43,000 applications for users to download.

In the above table is the daily application growth data of Windows 8. On average, there are 200 new applications appearing on Windows Store every day. Data from MetroStore Scaner said that on Saturday (February 16), a record of 359 approved applications was recorded, while on Wednesday (February 13) there were only 79 new applications.
