Apple Cuts Prices on Apps to Mark 5th Anniversary of App Store

Apple’s App Store has just turned 5 and to celebrate those five years of awesomeness Apple has decided to take off the price tag on certain apps and issue a price cut on several others.

The apps, as it turns out, are among the more popular ones in the App Store so it’s a great chance to get the best on your iOS device.

Here’s a list of the more popular ones among those apps:

• Traktor DJ
• Where’s My Water
• Infinity Blade II
• Barefoot World Atlas
• Tiny Wings
• Badland
• Superbrothers: Sword and Sorcery
• Over
• How to cook everything
• Day One

Here’s the entire list of those apps that are offered with discount. Traktor DJ in particular is a great value as it costs $20 normally. How to cook everything is priced at $10.

You better have to hurry as the app price cut might be over in sometime.

The five year period marks some great achievements. The store holds some 900,000 apps, which have been downloaded more than 50 billion times via 575 million accounts.

But perhaps the biggest achievement is the triggering of several other major app stores launches including Google Play and the exploding of the app development business, both of whom aren’t going to end anytime soon.
