Kimoji breaks the Apple Store

Los Angeles - Kim Kardashian West's latest app broke the Apple Store on Tuesday.

The reality TV star released her Kimoji app, on which users can download a series of Kim-style emojis and use them in their messages to friends, and the overwhelming demand for the $1.99 feature led to the Apple Store crashing.

The 35-year-old stunner took to Twitter to apologise to Apple for breaking their digital distribution platform.

In a series of tweets, she wrote:

Apple, I'm so sorry I broke your App Store!!!

Fortunately for Apple, Kim's app didn't crash the store for long and it was up and running again.

She later tweeted:

Ok! We're back! Everything is fixed! Get KIMOJI now in the App Store! https://t.co/1xP9liDahl pic.twitter.com/21XVf7x6lr
