iPhone and iPod Touch account for 84 per cent of usage, according to new research.
A study from Flurry claims that iPhone accounted for 56 per cent of mobile app usage in April, with iPod Touch taking 28 per cent to give Apple an 84 per cent slice of the market.
Venturebeat reports that Google Android, in contrast, secured 16 per cent of the market. However, this is hugely up on the seven per cent it claimed in March, and is all the more impressive when it is considered that right now there is only one Android phone on the market – the T-Mobile G1.
Flurry adds that 53 per cent of iPhone owners will use their apps on a wi-fi network, with 37 per cent doing so on a private connection and 16 per cent on a public connection.
Typically, users are likely to keep on accessing apps for around three months, with peak usage occurring between the sixth and eighth week.
