There are a larger number of operating systems available to build mobile apps. But it’s a very difficult question to answer as to which one should be targeted first? In the largest companies development at both the platforms can be done simultaneously but for a small scale business it’s difficult to predict the success or failure of the business.
Here 5 reasons have been underlined that reflects the importance of using Android platform rather than iOS:
1) Portability: Android apps are building using java programming so it is always easy to port it to another operating system. Also these apps can be easily portable to chrome operating systems.
2) Multi user support: if you think of sharing via iOS device then it’s necessary to have same OS. This leads to overlapping of apps and other login related stuff. On the other hand Android allows adapting individual accounts when sharing a device among users.
3) Low barrier of Entry: For developing an iOS app, developer must have Mac. However android app development can be done at windows, Mac or Linux. Also if you want to register as a developer on Apple store it require a fee amounts to $99 which is a very high amount as compared to android which is onetime payment of $25.
4) Profitability: Android apps are more profitable than iOS Apps.
5) Market Share: The one of the reasons why android apps should be developed first is that
Android has dominated 78% Market share. The estimated number of Smartphone users is estimated as 1.6 billion that shows the potential of users using Android Smartphone. On the other hand iOS users have are estimated around 395 millions, 46 and 45 millions window and blackberry devices respectively.
Developers are always looking for maximize their chances to success. Fundamentally the choice is yours. Differentiation are not sufficient to place one much higher than other.
