Programs have been called programs since they were invented, dumbass
programs --> little programs in C --> java --> java applets (1996?) (OS crash soon) --> little PDA programs in Palm --> apple computer phone --> (hey these programs are small like little apples! magic! smiles! unicorn! anal!) --> apps
Now they are called apps in Windows 10.
in win 8/8.1/10 apps tend to refer to the shit you download through the M$ store, while programs are, well, programs
So apps come from apples?
Since smartphones
NICE.
Windows 8 and it's metro design is when first noticed programs being labeled as APPS

I don't like to call them apps, for me apps are the ones in the smartphones...
