Summary:A developing apparatus includes a developer carrying member configured to carry a developer, and a magnet member disposed inside the developer carrying member. The magnet member includes one or more first magnet portions having a first magnetic polarity at an outer surface thereof opposing an inner surface of the developer carrying member, and one or more second magnet portions having a second magnetic polarity at an outer surface thereof opposing the inner surface. In a cross-section perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the magnet member at a longitudinally central portion thereof, a number of the first magnet portions is larger than a number of the second magnet portions, and a ratio of a total area of the first magnet portions in the cross-section is smaller at a longitudinally end portion of the magnet member than at the longitudinally central portion.
