Armenian start-up app PicsArt arrives on iPhone now

YEREVAN, January 8. /ARKA/. PicsArt, a bootstrapped Armenian mobile startup which forged its success by going Android-first, is today releasing its mobile photo editing application on Apple’s App Store, techcrunch.com reports.
“Since its launch a little over a year ago, PicsArt has already reached 35 million downloads on Google Play,” the source states.
That’s a fairly significant number, considering that photo-sharing leader Instagram crossed the 50-million mark on Android this past October, for instance, according to the source.
In addition, the company said that PicsArt today has almost 2 million unique daily users, and is the top application listed in Google Play’s Photography section in all the markets where Google Play is available.
The application was developed in November 2011 by the start-up company, 20-25 employees of which work in Armenia, and over 6 workers in California. —0-
