If you’ve ever wondered how much all the apps in Apple’s App Store, you won’t have to wait for a rainy day to figure it out, Forbes has already calculated it for us. Here’s what the top ten list looks like with the most money generated and the publishers with the most apps: (List after the break)

1. Iceberg Reader
# apps: 1206
Total Cost - $16,427.94

2. Khalid Shaikh
# apps: 986
Total Cost - $4,714.14

3. PlayMesh
# apps: 110
Total Cost - $3,214.90

4. Paragon Technologie GmbH
# Bought: 180
Total Cost - $3,116.20

5. Skyscape
# Bought: 40
Total Cost- $2,826.60

6. Lexi-Comp
# apps: 15
Total Cost - $2,269.85

7. IndiaNIC Infocom Limited
# apps: 366
Total Cost - $2,125.34

8. Innovative Language Learning, LLC
# apps: 260
Total Cost - $1,730.40

9. Modality Inc.
# apps: 61
Total Cost - $1,719.39

10. Brighthouse Labs
# apps: 1602
Total Cost- $1,611.98

If you were thinking what the cost of every app in the Apple App Store would be, here it is (drum roll please…), $144, 326.06. That’s a lot of money and I would love to meet someone who does end up buying every single app. With today’s day and age of people trying crazy things to get notoriety, I won’t be surprised if someone ends up buying every single app very soon.

Win!

There are over 65,000 (third-party) apps in the App Store, as of July (when the above post was written).

$144,326.06 / 65,000 = $2.22 average cost per application.

If that’s what you consider expensive, then what are you doing with a $200+ iPhone in the first place?
