Mobile app developers, in general, seem to prefer to target iOS before Android, in spite of iOS being "closed". I think the main reason for this is pretty simple: money, and it is pretty clear that iOS pays out more on the whole. Hard to say with scientific certainty to what extent reduced infringement plays a role in this. But for the same reason that game studios might treat the "open" PC platform (with 90%+ infringement) as a last resort and instead focus on "closed" consoles, I think reduced infringement may be a significant factor.
