It appears that the incentive to buy an iPad simply for its cool apps is
still there, since 48% of the top iPad apps aren’t available on Android
slates. I’m talking especially about the games here and the first that
comes to mind is the just launched Plants vs Zombies 2.

Also, when a game like Modern Combat 4 or Asphalt 8 launches, it does so on
iOS day or even weeks before Android. Of course, Google’s mobile OS has its
exclusive titles, but they pale in comparison to the deals that Apple
reached with major game makers. Of the most popular iPad apps on the market
30% are not available for Android at all, while 18% are available for
Android phones and not Android tablets.
One would think that with the current dominant position on the mobile device
market, Android would do something about this aspect, but sadly it’s not
quite so. The tablet app data comes from Canalys and explains the world we
live in. The problem is that app developers have to write an app dozens of
times for dozens of Android devices, while there’s only one iPad, to that’
s pretty much it.
Also, stats show that Android users are less likely to spend money on apps,
so devs are making less money on Google’s platform. It’s a logical choice
to go with the iPad…
