I'm going on my 12th device this week and expect at least two more next month. My partner has 6 devices at his place.
Part of the problem is Google is releasing OSes faster than devices can keep up, and in a few cases I'm buying simply because the prior's OS is stuck yet I have to satisfy new devices users too. For example, I have Galaxy Tab from IO which is stuck on 3.1, but all new tablets use 4.0 and there's unexpected differences between them.
The killer reason for us is the dreaded 1-star review because we missed a particular combo (screen/OS). We have > 1M users between 2 apps w/ 4.2+ ratings each as a result.
Once you're making some good $$, you really can't afford not to have a device library.
- robocat 14y ago> dreaded 1 star reviews This is very obvious when looking at app ratings - users seem to blame model even if problem is entirely unrelated. Hell, the Play Store ratings shows the user's model/device name under each user's review... that leads users to quickly blame their model type.
