Google recently
rolled out a detailed Infographic report that demonstrated the most
Android ‘App– Crazed’ Countries in the world. The search engine giant
declared that Android Market has reached an important milestone of 10
billion downloads per month.
South Korea tops the chart as no.1 Google app crazed country, however the result is not that astonishing, because the country posses fast Internet connection and is a native of global Android OS-based smartphone and tablet makers Samsung and LG. The countries that came closer to it were Hong Kong and Taiwan, home of HTC and Acer; which were ranked as No.2 and No.3 respectively.
As U.S. takes the 4th place in the list, it is speculated that the craze of the Americans is segmented between Apple’s App Store and Google’s Android Market. Accidentally in July 2011, the app store also celebrated 15 billion downloads which were up from 10 billion in January. Though it is reported that the android market is poised for a faster growth, 10 billion in December from 3 billion in March and 6 billion in July, predicts that in the next couple of months Android apps will cross the number of its rival iOS apps.
Singapore grabbed the No.5th rank, followed by Sweden in No.6th position, Israel (No.7), Denmark (No.8), Netherlands (No.9) and Norway (No.10). It was quite obvious to note the European countries like the UK, France or Germany failed to grab a position in the top 10 list. The biggest mobile phone markets like China and India, which has some cheapest android phones in the world, were also missing in the top 10 list, possibly that the Chinese and the Indians are not that crazy to download apps.
The categories of Android app that were downloaded the most were games with 25.6 percent of download. At quite a distant No. 2 was entertainment with 12.2 percent downloads, succeeded by 11.17 percent tools, 6.45 percent communication and 4.67 percent productivity.
