"Each snapshot of data represents all the devices that visited the Google Play Store in the prior 7 days."
This also contains people who only open the play store by accident, or to install updates where the app permission have changed. But I would personally see any person who opens the play store as a person who is able and willing to download an app.
Anyway, I think the numbers are good. compared with other cross platform technologies, Android versions are adopted reasonably fast.
- Zigurd 13y agoFor tablet-oriented apps and anything that's aimed at green-field deployent, it's an easy decision to go 4.x and back-port as time permits, but for a certain class of mass-market, non-game apps you want to access every stingy, retrograde user out there from a unified code base. That may have gotten easier with the new ActionBar in the Support Library. Using lame ActionBar substitutes used to make using Support Library back-compatibility a PITA.
