Apple Inc., which has faced criticism for manufacturing its computing devices overseas instead of in the U.S., is putting a number to the jobs it has created or supported at home: 1.03 million.
Applications designed for Apple's smartphones and tablets have helped create more than 627,000 U.S. jobs, while 334,000 jobs have resulted from its spending and growth, and 66,000 people work directly for the company in the U.S., Apple said Thursday on its website. Revenue generated through its App Store rose 50 per cent to a record in 2014, it said.
