Android app development is hopeful with 64% share of the total market

 
Android has done it yet again. Yes, it has emerged as the top operating system selling the most number of Smartphone. According to a survey conducted by WPP group, it has been observed that Android accounted for 64% of the total Smartphone sales globally. Apple’s iOS trailed at the second spot but still remained to stay significant due to the popularity of the iPhone. Overall this has come as great news for android app development experts.  Overall, mobile app development experts around the world must cite this as favorable news and the trend will continue this year on android as well.

Android app development firms have their eyes fixed on the android flagship devices this year.  With Xperia Z selling 5m handsets within a short span of 40 days and now HTC one and galaxy S4 out in the market, android app development companies are hoping to see an increase in mobile app development demand from the previous year. Last year, it was an open ground for Samsung as with no completion for its S3 how ever with so many makers making a 5 inch phone this year competition is going to be tough for OEMs. On the other hand android app development teams are already hoping a surge in demand this year with more emphasis on graphic intensive apps and games.

While the android ruled most of the countries, in Japan; iOS managed to topple android and continue its lead. Apple has also recognized the urgency to expand its market share and is concentrating its sales efforts into countries like India to gain better sales stats.
