      It's really, really important for decision makers to see through this sort of gross-revenue-in-all-categories-and-payment-types smokescreen. Most I talk to do (but those are the same folks who are in touch enough with the data to be pivoting back to web anyway, sooo....) https://twitter.com/hunterwalk/status/983430516908081152 …

      Agreed. Any trend data without some real zooming in, followed up by solid segmentation is misleading at best.

      This has been a real thing in mobile over the years. Seeing this type of sleight of hand a bunch with cloud vendor reports now too. Office and Photoshop are cloud revenue? C'mon.🤦‍♂️

      Can you guys help me parse this? I see @appfigures data showing app "shipments" declining https://blog.appfigures.com/ios-developers-ship-less-apps-for-first-time/ …, yet also see these big headline numbers in the TC article showing growth. What's the disconnect?

      We (Adobe) had data about number of apps and percentage of those apps that where either Cordova or PhoneGap. When I left percentage was climbing [20% of the app store] but totals had stalled. Apps themselves haven't been growing for a while. Cc @davejohnson

      There are other effects here too: in EM, on low-end devices, many users install/use/uninstall apps on a loop. Space is at a premium on MANY devices.

          Wealthy users don't see or understand this effect because it isn't their lived experience. Tech press is basically blind to EM needs/constraints.

          Yes and reporting "downloads" is hella different than bare aggregates. Each store probably only sees 100k new apps a year.

          Yep. Worth mentioning that iOS now actually even has a setting to offload apps you don’t frequently use then re-install when you need them, without the user doing it manually. They observed how people use their devices and adjusted design of the App Store and iOS itself.
