Believe it or not, but, facts say Apple will lose its tablet market share crown by 2015 according to IDC (International Data Corporation). Despite Apple’s success in the tablet market in recent years, Android is poised to overtake iOS in the tablet platform space. Wikipedia also informs that 60 % of the global mobile market Android shares in 2013, and the number comes to 70% so far. But iOS currently brings in more developer revenue, partly because it has a 20% market share, and partly because of the iOS system updates frequently. But the graph is transforming, Google has been moving functionality out of the core OS and into Google Play Services. This is updatable independently of the core OS. So, developers will care less about the OS version. And Android is becoming more of a Google-controlled platform.
