50% of iOS app downloads are games

[ 1 ] Posted by on May 20, 2011

App StoreDo you find that the majority of apps that you download on your iPhone are games? Well that’s what is really happening according to a new study by analysts from Distimo and Newzoo, who have established that above all else iOS users (that’ll be the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad) love their games more than any other category on the App Store.

The study carried out by analysts Distimo and Newzoo concluded that a very large reason as to why 50% of app downloads are games was due to the hit game Angry Birds, in which all round gaming downloads increased ten fold. This could be because Angry Birds was such an addicting game, and prompted people to look for similar stuff, or it could be because people suddenly realized that games on the App Store are generally reasonably priced.
