Apple: More than 8,500 third-party apps available for the Apple Watch

While Apple did not reveal the exact number of Apple Watches sold, the company shares details about the app ecosystem for the wearable device.

According to Apple CEO Tim Cook, there are now more than 8,500 third-party apps for the Apple Watch. That's an increase of over 3,000 apps in three months, which indicates strong developer interest in the Apple Watch. Cook also shared that Twitter, Line and WeChat are some of the most used apps on the Apple Watch.

With the availability of native apps and watchOS 2 in fall, the app ecosystem is set to thrive and this is a good sign for Apple's first new product in the post-Steve Jobs era.
