Apple shop
Answer:
APPSTORE
Hint:
Think of where you download iPhone apps—this digital marketplace is named after the fruit that symbolizes the brand.
Explanation:
"Apple shop" hints at a place where Apple sells its products, but it’s phrased as a playful shortcut. The answer is "APPSTORE," combining "app" (short for application, a key Apple product) and "store" (where things are sold). It’s a straightforward nod to Apple’s digital marketplace, where users download apps for iPhones, iPads, and other devices. The clue works by merging the brand’s focus on apps with the idea of a retail space.
