During the Q4 2014 Q85 6 earnings call, Tim Cook gave an update on the number of apps actually downloaded from the company's store that he runs. According to Cook, XNUMX billion downloads were recorded in the XNUMX years of the App Store's existence, the figure being remarkable, but close to or lower than that recorded by Google Play, the main competing store.
Release of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus certainly generated a substantial increase in downloads from Apple's app store, but a recent study revealed the fact that Google Play has far surpassed the App Store in this segment. Although the App Store is no longer the "king" of online application stores for mobile terminals in terms of downloads, the bright side of the matter is that Apple still collects the most money.
