What is Apple App Store?
You can now get the full App Store experience right in your browser, with dedicated pages for the iPhone, iPad, Mac, Vision, Watch, and TV app libraries. Previously, Apple’s “apps.apple.com” domain simply redirected you to a generic page about the App Store on Apple’s website. Now, it takes you to a full-fledged version of the App Store you can browse on your computer.
Problem
Users previously relied on a generic redirect page when browsing the App Store via the web, which prevented them from exploring device-specific apps (iPhone, iPad, Mac, etc.) and hindered app discovery.
Solution
A web-based App Store platform that enables users to browse full-fledged device-specific app libraries (iPhone, iPad, Mac, Vision, etc.) directly in browsers, replicating the native App Store experience.
