iPhone 3G App Download Limit Raised to 20MB [Up to 20MB App Downloads on iPhone Over 3G Now Supported by Apple & Carriers]

Do you happen to love App Store apps so much that you’re downloading them at all times no matter where you are? Well in case that’s true then it means you must also use your 3G unlimited data plan, whenever a 3G connection is available, to get as many apps as possible while you’re on the go. Sure getting them through Wi-Fi or straight from your Mac or PC would be the best idea but that’s not always possible. And we can’t go without apps anymore, can we?

Unfortunately not all the apps out there can be downloaded over 3G. In fact over the air app downloads are limited and therefore you wouldn’t be able to take advantage of all the apps in the App Store. Luckily for you AT&T and Apple have decided to double that cap to 20MB. That means you now can download any app over your 3G connection as long as it’s not bigger than 20MB.

Is that such a good idea for AT&T? Will this move further clog its already busy 3G network? Time, and most probably angry customers, will tell since the upgrade has been implemented at some point this week. It’s no wonder the upgrade has been ignored so far as probably most app users are still getting their fix with help of a Wi-Fi connection or through their computer.

And it looks like AT&T is not the only one to support the limit increase. Customers from Canada, Australia, The Netherlands, Austria and Germany are reporting a similar upgrade which means that we might see most carriers raise the OTA app download limitation up to 20MB.

Furthermore it looks like Apple has raised another limitation from 12MB to 20MB. This time around we’re talking about the iPhone’s iTunes app limit which went all the way up to 20MB. What do you have to say iPhone users? Have you noticed any 3G performance changes lately?
