Yeah, it's alarming to hear that even with millions of apps, you're seeing such a huge difference between iOS and Android sales. I'm going to change my future development plans if this is the reality for everyone.
- Zaheer 13y agoYa I've actually dropped Android support moving forward. Here's some more data on the stark differences in revenue: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6193605 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6193605
- eevee 13y agoI'm confused; where is the difference in revenue coming from if you're selling the same product to the same number of people on each platform?
- Zaheer 13y agoExactly where you just stated yourself... the platform.
- eevee 13y agoAs in, Google takes a bigger cut?
- kintamanimatt 13y agoNo, both Apple and Google take 30%.
- Zaheer 13y agoOh now I see the confusion. No the cut is about the same, it's the platform itself as in its users. I don't know what it is but I suppose they just tend to spend money and click ads less. I can't pinpoint the exact reason but many other developers have experienced the same trend.
