Apple has launched its App Store on the web, offering a central hub where you can browse through different categories of apps across all of the company’s devices, as spotted earlier by MacRumors and 9to5Mac. Now, when you navigate to apps.apple.com, you’ll see the revamped interface instead of a webpage that just contains information about the App Store.
Apple brings its App Store to the web
The web-based App Store has a new homepage, but you can’t use it to install apps on your iPhone or Mac.

There’s no way to download apps from the App Store on the web, however. Apple just gives you the option to share an app or open it directly inside the App Store installed on your device.
Along with the ability to switch between listings of apps for the iPhone, iPad, Mac, Vision Pro, Apple Watch, and Apple TV, you can check out recommendations on the Today tab as well as sort apps by category, such as productivity, entertainment, adventure, and more.
The new web-based App Store also serves as a portal where you can search for apps, too. Apple previously offered webpages for each of its apps, but they weren’t easily accessible or searchable unless it was from a direct link.
