Of the 51,972 app developers listed in AppStoreHQ’s database, these stats can be extrapolated from DeVore’s count: 43,185, or 80 percent, develop solely for Apple’s iOS. 8,787, or 17 percent, develop solely for Google’s Android platform. 1,412, or 3 percent, develop for both. “If Android’s growth continues, you can expect this number to grow,” said AppStoreHQ founder Chris DeVore .
