Now Gift Applications from the iTunes Store

Apple has always been making smart moves towards improvisation of its products and services. We were expecting this very soon , apple has added a feature to gift applications on the App store where you would be able to gift a game or an App to anyone on their email addresses , previously Apple had introduced this feature on the music store in iTunes, which has come up to the App store too.
Of course developers are going to generate some more revenue this summer, merry christmas developers, but it also comes as an asset to App lovers and gamers.

iPhone marketing author Rana Sobhany reports: “Apple has now integrated gifting into the App Store, a move which will likely bring significant additional revenue to developers around key holidays. On the iTunes side, music gifting has become very popular since it was implemented, particularly related to music discovery among friends, and I believe that this behavior will continue into the application space as well.

To access this feature users just need to agree on the new terms and conditions of the iTunes store after signing in ,
click ‘Buy App’ and then select ‘Gift this App’ by clicking the arrow beside buy App , and you are done

The gift feature works well and has been tested by few users , hope this feature brings new colors to App store , and also serves as a good news for developers over these vacations.
