Android is over 70% of the market.

  We 100% plan to support Android.

  Pretty easy when pretty much anything with any version of Android OS on it constitutes as "Android". For comparison, as of February 8th, 94% of all iOS devices are on iOS 8 or later, with 82% of those on iOS 9.

    Since Android 2.3, I haven't had much trouble sharing code across versions.

      Performance is the major problem. Getting the code to run isn't really an issue anymore.

        Interesting, for fun, can you share a story where changing Android versions resulted in a performance regression? My problems were limited to bugs in the OGL Java wrapper in Android 2.x.

          I cannot. However the performance of the apps on my colleagues' phones serves as enecdotal evidence IMO.

  But Apple is over 60% of the market, which a more important metric for most developers. https://tctechcrunch2011.files.wordpress.com/2015/04/2015-q1-market-index-charts_barchart.png https://tctechcrunch2011.files.wordpress.com/2015/04/2015-q1... (I'm an Android guy myself, just trying to be realistic)

    But React apps aren't the kind you sell (like games), instead they are typically used to display data from a server - rather than process it. Take a look at the showcase, all these apps are free! https://facebook.github.io/react-native/showcase.html https://facebook.github.io/react-native/showcase.html
