Android users finally buying paid apps, download numbers catching iPhone
- mtgx 14y agoThis issue has never been about Android users being "conditioned" to pirate or whatever that flawed theory that sounded true said. The real issue was that Google only accepts Google Wallet payments, and the vast majority of users couldn't be bothered to make one just to buy some apps from the store. Now they are asking everyone in the beginning when they set-up their Android 4.0+ phone to make a Google Wallet account, and this should increase the number of users who will pay for apps. In the past there was also the issue that paid apps weren't available in too many countries, but I think Google has largely solved the problem by now.
