Will it actually run?

Every distinct binary is labelled up front, so nobody wastes a download on an app that installs but never launches.

When the archive's versions shipped. The early gold rush is very visible.

What each version declares it needs — the whole point is how much of the archive still suits a first-generation device.

Read from each binary's Mach-O header; fat binaries count once per slice.

Versions with a known device family.

160,850 customer reviews recovered from archived review feeds, stars and all.

Release dates are known or calibrated for 37,819 of 72,690 versions; the "releases by year" chart counts only those.
Store availability has been checked for 20,700 apps so far — 14,950 of them (72%) are no longer on the App Store.
21,399 installable binaries are armv6-only — they run on nothing newer than an iPhone 4 or the first generation iPad, and Legacy Store is likely the only storefront that still serves them.
Prices are recorded for 10,611 versions (7,745 paid, 2,866 free at the time). Categories are known for 18,478 apps.
The oldest datable version was released May 28, 2008 — before the App Store itself opened on July 10, 2008. Chart captures span 2008–2025.
