This information emerged from the App Store shows some signs of decline in growth rate, while the Android Market repeatedly exploded. However, the results of a recent analysis showed Research2Guidance time event could be very early, in August this year.
According to the calculations of Research2Guidance, to May 8 / 2011, Android Market applications space will be 425,000 applications. This number is expected higher number of App Store software at that time. In April last, the Android app market has added 28,000 new applications, while this figure was only 11,000 of the App Store.
However, the need to understand that this forecast is based on the number of software applications on each time, not go into specific sales analysis. Even Research2Guidance suggest that the rapid growth of the number of applications on the Android Market could become obstacles to the application developers in creating high turnover.
