Lately less, but a while ago we found notable differences between the quality of the applications for iOS and its twin on other platforms, in fact it was even common to see how certain applications were only offered in the Apple App Store. This was mainly due to developers finding much more incentive (especially cheap) in iOS users, and this is something that seems to be the only thing that has not changed in more than a decade of smartphones. The App Store continues to offer better economic results than the Google Play Store, and it is that the quality is paid.
In general, the total spending on applications by users (both iOS and Android) amounted to 2019 billion dollars in 83.500, However, 54.200 million correspond to the App Store and only 29.300 million correspond to the Google Play Store, all this taking into account that there are many more Android devices on the market than iOS for obvious reasons. Despite all this, Google Play Store is growing at a good pace, 18,1% compared to last year, while Apple grows 16.3%, showing an improvement year by year in the situation of sales of Android developers , although inevitably the picture continues to be more attractive in the App Store.
There is a clear reason, the first is that "piracy" in Android is the order of the day and this causes many users not to spend, and the second is that for some reason that we are not going to try to elucidate, iOS users tend to to spend more money on software than users of other platforms. Be that as it may, Sensor Tower has already taken its comparative statistics for 2018 and 2019 between the App Store and the Google Play Store, and the result does not surprise absolutely anyone, as it usually happens in these cases.
In other words, the iPhone is a phone for the "rich" and the Android phone for the poor (although there are little kids without a € 1200 iPhone hard-on for pretending, that's how it goes). In fact, there is another certain statistic, many acquaintances are moving from iPhone to Android, because renewing their battered iPhone 7 costs them € 1000 and they have seen how a € 300 Android has nothing to envy nor do you have to be a computer scientist to use it. In the end, in terms of use and experience, they are practically the same, and more for people who basically call, use WhatsApp and Instagram.
As long as Apple does not start releasing € 500 phones they will have a problem in the long run. I was an iPhone user for many years because until the iPhone4 everything else was rubbish, but today, I prefer a Galaxy, a Mate30 or similar a thousand times than an iPhone.
And that Apple or developers earn more in the APPStore to me as a user I do not care. In fact, those of Fornite skip the Google store because it seems wrong to pay 30%, but to pay it to Apple if, because there is no other. Anyway.
