Android Market Passes 65,000 Apps!

The Android platform has officially passed the 65,000 app (paid & free) milestone! It was only just the end of April that Google passed the 50,000 app mark. It is clear that the Android platform is growing and growing quickly.

While the Android Market is still behind Apple’s App Store, which is currently serving more than 200,000 applications, the Android Market is catching up. Over the last few weeks, the Android customer base has been quickly increasing as more Android devices hit the market.

Android developers are also experiencing more users/customers and finding the community to be a lucrative platform for development.

The Android Market is estimated to exceed 100,000 applications this September 2010.

    Does anyone know if and when Canadian Developers will be able to sell apps in the Android Marketplace. This is so ridiculous., Google refuses to comment on this. It has to do with Google checkout. There would be so many more great apps for Canadians if Canadian developers were able to sell apps. Any rumours or news?

    android is the best EVER!!..an iPhone and Android Market seems to work much better on the phone than App Store does on iPhones. It doesn't close after installing a single app, it shows a list of required permissions in a single place before approving installation.. Really nice.
