Distimo, the app analytic firm, has uncovered the Apple App Store for iPad, the Apple App Store for iPhone, BlackBerry App World, Google Android Market, Nokia Ovi Store, Palm App Catalog, Windows Marketplace for Mobile (6.x), and Windows Phone 7 Marketplace during January 2011. The major findings are:
- Google Android Market is the only store that has more free than paid applications, and the proportion of free applications increased again in January.
- Two app stores are clearly ahead of the other app stores in terms of growth rates in January 2011: Windows Phone 7 Marketplace (30%) and Google Android Market (18%). However, the evolution of both stores is very different, and will be examined in more detail in this report.
