Spotlight on Global Trends

Where Marketers Are Focusing Mobile Campaigns

● Android is the dominant mobile operating system globally

● iOS is typically stronger in developed nations, but not always

● Key takeaway: Where marketers are focusing their efforts is where they see profits

Percent of Organic Downloads

“Organic and ASO have a marginal cost of $0.00 per install, but not a total cost of $0.00 for installs. Effective ASO scales better than paid, but that doesn’t mean it’s free.”- Ian Sefferman, General Manager, TUNE Marketing Console
