GetJar调查称Android应用在该平台增长率达500%

发布时间:2011-03-28 10:55:42 Tags:,,

据独立应用商店GetJar最近的一项内部调查显示,虽然Symbian和Java手机应用在GetJar的下载量仍占统治地位,但开发商向GetJar提交的Android手机应用比去年同期增长了500%,Android极有可能成为市场上最重要的手机平台。

游戏邦获悉,从全球范围来看,Android应用在GetJar中所占比例是18.2%,但在北美市场,这一比例达到了34.9%,在欧洲则是31.8%。

这项调查访问了2500名手机用户,41.2%的受访者表示自己购买下一部手机时会选用Android手机,选择iPhone的比例是15.6%,考虑Symbian的比例为11.4%,黑莓是8.5%,而Windows Mobile(准确的说应该是Windows Phone 7)是8.2%。

不过游戏邦认为,这项调查仅针对GetJar的用户,所以出现Android支持率超过iPhone平台的现象并不令人意外。

除此之外,该调查还发现,手机游戏是最受欢迎的应用类型。

有28%的受访者每天都通过GetJar下载应用,这些产品中有65.7%是手机游戏。

之前有不少人认为,社交媒介是用户搜索应用的重要工具,但GetJar的调查结果表明,仅有5.8%的用户通过社交网站搜索应用产品。有53%的受访者是通过“在线搜索”渠道搜索应用和制定购买决策。

此外还有21.6%的用户是自己通过应用商店搜索产品,有7.3%则是受移动广告影响而购买产品。(本文为游戏邦/gamerboom.com编译,转载请注明来源:游戏邦)

GetJar App Meter reveals Android app submissions up 500%

Considering the headlines GetJar has fostered thanks to its support of Android, it might have seemed safe to assume that Google’s OS was the most important platform on the marketplace.

In reality, both Symbian and Java remain the dominate forces in terms of the apps carried by the portal, though figures obtained from the firm’s first App Meter report suggests that’s a situation that’s set to change.

Android acceleration

The biggest stat drawn from the firm’s data sweep – which appears to combine in-house numbers with a survey of 2,500 users – is that Android app submissions are up 500 percent year-on-year.

At the moment, Android makes up 18.2 percent of apps on GetJar on a global basis, but the firm claims that picture changes in both North America and Europe, where Google’s OS holds a 34.9 percent and 31.8 percent share respectively.

As such, the company claims it’s clear that, in the future, Android will become the marketplace’s primary focus.

Next steps

That’s a position backed up by the fact that 41.2 percent of those surveyed claimed their next phone will be an Android handset.

That puts it comfortably ahead on iPhone on 15.6 percent, Symbian on 11.4 percent, BlackBerry on 8.5 percent and what’s labelled as Windows Mobile (though presumably actually Windows Phone 7) on 8.2 percent.

However, given the survey sapped up existing GetJar users, it’s hardly surprising that Android, rather than iPhone, came out on top.

Games galore

In terms of the wider market, games appear to be where the money is.

GetJar claims that, of the apps people download – 28 percent of which who do so daily – 65.7 percent are games.

Just how they discover them, however, is more interesting. Much focus on the digital download age is place on the importance of social media as a discovery tool, but GetJar’s numbers suggest just 5.8 percent of users discover apps via such sites.

Instead, the much broader – and almost indefinable – category of ‘online’ dominates, with 53 percent of users surveyed claiming that’s where they make their purchasing decisions. 21.6 percent discover apps via the app stores themselves, while 7.3 percent are influenced by mobile advertising.(source:pocketgamer)
