There are more free Android apps than free iPhone apps now

This is a piece of good new for the Android users who don’t like paying for any goodies. Distimo, a mobile analytics group from Netherlands says that now there are more free apps available for Android, the Google mobile OS as compared to theiPhone. It is 13,4342 vs 121,845. There are some things that you have to consider here. When the free iPad apps are included too, the number of free iOS apps increases to 132,239.

Also, there are rigorous processes of vetting of Apple and this might have played a role in its slippage. The report does not highlight things like repetition, legality or even the to total number of that are dedicated to making the noises of fart. The number of premium Apple apps is more – it is 333,124 vs 206,143. The rapid growth of Android and the relative stagnation of iOS could let Google take up the top spot in a time of five months. Android apps could take over the number of iPad and iPhone apps combined.

Apple iPhone 5 too is rumored to be launched soon in the market and this might change the scenario. Apple iPhone 5 is expected to be even better than the predecessor with a lot of new features, the most important being a faster processor. Android and Apple are far ahead of other competitors in terms of market reach. For instance, there is Window Mobile Phone but it doesn’t come anywhere close to these two giants
