Android’s Attrition Process: Is Google Serious about Android
Apps Development?
With the launch of hundreds of different smart phone models and the growing no. of
tablets running on Android application framework, Google continues to face the
fragmentation challenge. Android’s enormous and open app market allows users to
download and try free apps. Android application development took place for
various devices with different nature and sizes; it was likely that a few Android apps
won’t run on all the devices.
Rather than going through the whole process of loading your device with apps and
returning them, Google opted for a better option. Some changes reflect on the tidy
web-based Android market. The Droid market would show the app compatibility
along with its features. Although, there is no formal announcement about this
feature, we took it for a spin. Google will show if any or all of your Android devices
will support the app.
Android’s App Attrition
We are aware of Android’s huge market app; however, do you know that the huge
market has actually cut down. Yes, recently received update on Android market
attrition is making it difficult for masses to make decision. Roughly, 95,000 of the
300,000 mobile applications have disappeared from the Android marketplace. In
comparison, 80,000 of the 500,000 apps created for iOS have disappeared.
Why does attrition matter to smart phone users? The foremost reason is that
attrition rate is the factor in calculating store sizes. Larger the size of the store,
larger is the smart phone attraction. Also, the attrition rate speaks about the

company’s reputation for itself. As far as Droid is concerned, Droid application
developers look more on the experimental side rather than in business. Why not to
hire an Android application developer over an iOS or why is Droid developer
casual or experimental? Read more!
Droid’s open culture
It hasn’t been long when Android was exposed to malicious apps. The most reputed
Android application development went through the malware test and found its
software vulnerable. The word open speaks directly with the hackers. Open source
software is made to share and freely distribute among users. Android mobile
application development gives liberty to developers to explore and upload their
creativity at their convenience, which is the main reason why they get an
opportunity to experiment and test waters.
On the other side, iOS charges $ 100 for each developer to gain a one year
membership as an iPhone developer. A stringent pre-approval process consumes
time but keeps iOS malware-free and iOS ecosystem, clean.
The removal of apps from Droid is sign of crumbled open system, which ballooned
the Droid marketplace almost instantly in a year. While Apple has a healthy count of
400,000 apps in its store, attrition goes high in Droid store and left it with mere
200,000 apps. This counts as a major fall of Droid and the cause is Droid’s friction-
free app-submission process. No verification and pre-approval process brought in
high no. of developers and led to high Android Apps development; however, fell
back on reliability.
With more and more issues entering Google’s zone. Google’s open Philosophy
becomes difficult to defend. We’ll keep you updated on more!
