Apple released its newest mobile operating system, iOS 7, to developers in an early release version this morning, the company announced at WWDC.

Apple has paid $10 billion to mobile developers since the App Store was launched five years ago, Apple CEO Tim Cook said today at WWDC, including $5 billion just in the last year. There are currently probably 300,000 app developers in the U.S. alone, and those developers have built 900,000 apps.
