While the attacks of mobile platforms continue with the development of technology, we can say that the latest shared details prove this situation. While the growth in the sector continues, the latest situation in the rivalry of the two giants has been revealed.
App Store, which is already ahead, continues to maintain the difference according to the latest data. Users also maintain their trust in Apple.
App Store almost doubles its competitor
