Android users, or IOS - who is more greedy? - Dobreprogramy

Apparently

speech Eric Schmidt of Google during the conference Le Web in Paris, not only me I found it far-fetched in places. Analyst firm Flurry has just published the results of the study, which clearly refer to his statement, he alleged that the Android overtake the iPhone.

Flurry determined that 73% of mobile applications developers wrote them first on the IOS platform, and only later on Android. The basis for this claim is quite robust, because the company monitors more than 55 thousand. manufacturers of mobile applications and over 135 thousand applications of the projects themselves. Data for 2011 years show that the trend is decidedly negative for Android.

It is true that Android devices are activated more (550 thousand. per day) than devices running IOS (450 thousand. day, although these are still generally more – about 50 million). The question, therefore, how these imbalances – do application developers were blind to the data Flurry analysis shows that, of course money – the developers cashing in on the applications for the IOS from three to four times as much on applications for Android. Flurry takes into account not only the revenue generated by the same application in the store shopping, but also advertising and all other related sources of income.

Another question, what on everyone’s lips, then again – why? Could Android users were more or less wealthy jews, than users of devices with IOS? Not necessarily. As noted Flurry, one of the reasons may be less than the App Storz degree to which the Market Android profiling data on credit cards. On the blog you can read that when you activate the device with iTunes requires a credit card number, which can not be done on the occasion of activation with Android. It is not quite true – iPad and iPhone can be activated without a card, although this possibility is actually quite cleverly hidden. The solution is particularly astute, if someone does not have experience with the IOS interface.

Android Market developers recognized this problem, resulting in the last promotion of applications for the buck. Judging by itself – the idea proved to be quite effective, because in fact only on this occasion there gave my credit card number.

As for your blog noticed Przemek spider, other studies seem to confirm these observations. For example, it appears that even the Google earns far more iPhone users than the holders of the Runner. The whole history shows that Apple is in a masterly way he can squeeze more money even with those market areas where there is no advantage in the number of units sold.
