Kim Kardashian Apologizes For Breaking the App Store With Kimoji Launch

However, experts feel that the reality star did not really "break the App Store."

When Paper Magazine said that Kim Kardashian was out to break the Internet, maybe they weren’t wrong?

Kardashian’s emoji app, Kimoji, debuted in the Apple App Store Monday to great fanfare. Currently, it is the top paid app (knocking Minecraft: Pocket Edition off the pole position). Kimoji is also the App Store’s no. 11 highest-grossing app, generating more revenue currently than much-advertised games Boom Beach and Mobile Strike.

The app — which features emoji of Kim’s most famous assets, as well as food and makeup — apparently caused an interruption in the App Store.
