Android has finally begun to earn more on applications than Apple … – Spider’s Web

So far, the situation in the field of competition and Google Play AppStore’u clearly proven record that more does not mean better. The fact that the world is selling nearly five times more Android devices per year, and the store Play gets five times more applications does not translate into more revenue for the search giant. According to the latest report by Digi-Capital, this situation but in the end it has changed. Could it be?

According to the latest quarterly report, Apple for 2,015 years in the past months the company has not only significantly increased sales MacBooks and broke record sales of iPhones but also recorded the biggest in the history of the revenue from the Appstore.

Meanwhile, the wide-ranging report Digi-Capital shows that Google allegedly overtook a competitor this time not only in the number of sold applications, but also the income received by them. However, it appears that Google can not crack open the champagne yet, as the said report is recognized globally Play Store results and called. “Chinese markets”, and as you know, with the recent Google does not receive a penny, and the more there are no available its services.

Also, if adding the results of these two stores actually trumps in terms of value sales AppStore’u , whereas when they break down into two parts, do not have the slightest chance Apple store in terms of revenue.

It is apparent here that Apple’s policy regarding the introduction of its services and facilities in the area of ​​China definitely paid off. A company with a bitten apple not only started selling more smartphones in China than in the United States, but also burst onto the market, where Google has not managed to set foot.

Shares of local markets with applications last year approached dangerous levels to share the official store, so Google has every reason to be discontent.

In fact, the only source of revenue for Google from the Play Store, which is slowly catching up (and even in some cases ahead) are iOS mobile games. According to the DAU-up to the 2014 years revenues from mobile games available in the Play Store tripled.

While iOS users are still those who prefer to pay for apps and extras inside them, it is estimated that the cost of advertising on Android devices are almost half price, therefore, in some cases, developers programming for the green robot earn more.

The imbalance in revenue from apps stores the two giants will certainly be gradually decreased, although in I feel until I manage to stave off rampant piracy on Android (which is a factor there many times higher than on iOS), Google can not count on the records.
