The estimated global revenue for the top 200 grossing apps for each has also shifted.
Apple earned around $15 million in November 2012, and Google Play earned $3.5 million.
As of November 2013, Apple was earning over $18 million, versus Google Play’s $12 million.
The two markets are basically divided between users of Apple products and Android users. However, Google Play may have broader appeal with its ease of access on PCs.
