London, Septmeber 28: Apple has claimed downloads from its iTunes applications store had passed two billion and that it now had more than 85,000 apps available for the iPhone and iPod Touch.
It did not say how many of the applications delivered were sold and how many were free.
The store has inspired rival stores and helped boost iPhone sales since the summer of 2008.
Apple said it has sold more than 50 million iPhones and iPod Touch devices in 77 countries.
AT&T Inc is the exclusive US provider for iPhone.
Google Inc also runs an app store for its Android mobile platform but has fewer apps than Apple.
