Android Market Hits 38,000 Apps Milestone!
Yesterday Google achieved a major milestone with their Android platform. During Google’s earnings reporting, aside from posting a 19% increase in revenue over last year, the company now features 38,000 apps in its Android Market.
Last month, the Android Market featured 30,000 apps, posting an increase of 8,000 apps since March. In September 2024, the Android Market featured 10,000 apps, which further grew to 16,000 in December 2024.
Without a doubt, the Android Market has become a success and Canadians just recently received Android Market access in terms of paid apps, so we too can benefit from the available applications. On the device side, Google also revealed that the Nexus One, now available in Canada, is a profitable business for them, even though the device is not available in stores.
The 38,000 apps milestone is definitely a great achievement for Google but it is also great for all of the Android owners, as we now have a lot more app selection.
