The Apple Watch will be available on pre-order starting April 10. Working for Apple has many benefits, including a 50% Apple Watch discount. That discount does not apply to the Apple Watch Gold Edition models though. More importantly, it seems more than one thousand apps have been already submitted in 4 days after the App Store started accepting them:
More than one thousand apps were submitted in just four days last week when the App Store started accepting them, and the rate of submissions has only been climbing since then…. I know that many of you have been looking forward to choosing an Apple Watch for yourselves, and we want to make it easy for you. Starting Friday, in countries where the watch is available for pre-order, a special Employee Purchase Plan will offer a 50% discount on any Apple Watch or Apple Watch Sport for your personal use.
Of course, not all these apps will be worth installing. Considering that Apple will most likely sell millions of Apple Watch units, we are going to see a ton of more apps in the future.
