- hn_check 6y agoBrowsing marketshare is not equivalent to marketshare. StatCounter captures browsing, and iOS users measurably browse more (for a variety of reasons - more powerful devices, more integral usage, a better experience, etc). In the US, iOS marketshare is around 45% and trails Android (which is around 50%). Both platforms have enormous support across virtually every service. It is demonstrably easy to transition between platforms.
