But in 2016, #Android & #iOS accounted for more than 99% of global smartphone sales.

💰 Fortnite on iOS made $15 million in its first three weeks in the App Store
According to SensorTower, Epic Games’ #iOS port of smash hit #Fortnite has earned more than $15 million in its first three weeks on the market.
Fortnite on iOS is now out-earning mobile heavyweights like #CandyCrushSaga, #ClashOfClans, and #PokemonGo on a weekly revenue basis, earning $6.4 million in the last seven days compared to Candy Crush Saga’s $5.8 million.
Sensor Tower estimates Fortnite has been downloaded 11 million times on mobile alone. According to Superdata Research, another game analytics company, Epic made about $126 million through Fortnite in-app purchases in the month of February. Mobile sales will surely boost that figure in the coming months.

📱 Fragmentation Remains an Issue in the Android Universe
On March 29, #Apple released #iOS 11.3, the latest version of its mobile operating system iOS. While this was only a minor refresh of iOS 11 (iOS 12 will follow later this year), it still was accompanied by the usual growing pains, i.e. users complaining about bugs and other problems.
While Apple would certainly prefer for its users not to have any complaints, the usual backlash after a new iOS version is released shows that its users are actually updating their devices, which is something that sets Apple’s mobile ecosystem apart from #Android.
Whoever purchases a new iPhone can count on his device getting new software for at least a couple of years. Android users on the other hand are often stuck with the version that comes pre-installed with their device, as many manufacturers don’t bother rolling out Android updates to their users.
As the following chart illustrates, 93% of iOS devices run some version of iOS 11 (originally released in September 2017) or iOS 10 (September 2016). Android’s latest version Oreo on the other hand is installed on just 1% of all active devices, while 4 in 10 devices run on a system that is more than three years old. As a consequence iOS app developers find a rather unified playing field while Android developers have to work with a deeply fragmented system.
