Although most important applications are available both in iOS as in Android, the users of both platforms show quite different profiles when using their devices. While games triumph on iDevices, androids opt for social tools and utilities. We show you a relationship of the most downloaded apps of last month.
There is no doubt that iOS y Android they cause different usage patterns in the consumer, motivated by many reasons. For example, the so intensive use that is given to the iPad to navigate against similar devices on the rival platform. We have already commented and tried to analyze it on several occasions, and even so it is difficult to explain the enormous differences in this section.
When it comes to downloading applications, the paths are also very different, both in paid and free apps. It is obvious that the iPad and iPhone they are priority targets for “mobile” game developers, and it shows on the charts of each platform. On iOS the following titles predominate:
Free
1. Candy Crush
2.Sonic Dash
3. YouTube
4. Injustice: Gods Among Us
5.Dentist Office
Payment
1 Whatsapp
2. Temple Run: O.Z.
3. Minecraft: Pocket Edition
4. Cut the Rope: Time Travel
5. pou
As we see, only WhatsApp y YouTube they manage to sneak into an impressive catalog of games.
However, in Android the picture looks quite different. The users of this platform do not pull so much towards the games themselves, but rather focus more on applications related to communication, utilities and social networks. These are the most downloaded:
Free
1. Facebook
2 Whatsapp
3. Skype
4. Facebook Messenger
5.Instagram
Payment
1.Shiftkey Keyboard
2.Titanium Backup Pro
3. Minecraft: Pocket Edition
4.Poweramp
5. New Launcher
Interestingly, there are only two matches on both platforms, Minecraft y WhatsApp. Everything else, as you can see, reflects very different trends.
