Brian Jurutka, vice president at comScore, said: "Tap Tap's success demonstrates that there is ample opportunity in the app space for any publisher to obtain significant distribution with a product that engages users.
"Since the number of app users is growing nearly ten percent each month, that opportunity will only continue to grow for both existing and emerging app developers."
