Android is amazing OS has better features and multitasking ...
iOS sucks because of simple system and lack of some features...

I'm in Africa and what I know is that people in Africa use the playstore to download things like whatsapp but I don't because I like to store my apk's

              *hint*
              if you have your android phones right now. pls check running services playstore should be there once your connected to the internet. you dont have to go to the app, phone will automatically run it on background only if you check mark before you agree to use play store on your phone... ^_^

Only go to Play Store to install updates then leave it for a month or two. Already have everything I need so, no reason to visit Play Store too often.

                      To be fair I rarely go on the play store myself. Only go when there's something I actually want, and half the time I end up using the internet, so there's probably been over a month in between using it in the past. Unless the figure includes using apps that were downloaded from the store, which I don't think is the case.

                        Hmm... interesting!
                        Few years back I've seen few people with Apple iPhones and Samsung Galaxies that just didn't bother to check that "Market" and "App Store" icons. They just didn't know what it was there for.
                        But as they say... once you go black, you never go back. :)

                        I really don't understand why anyone would not use the Play Store. It's what makes android beautiful, else this is just another feature phone level device with calls, sms and browser. :/

                            Apple will never have these numbers... And that's what pisses then off. So, if apple only had 10% of the market then that means they only have 140 million active phones.
