Games Represent a Quarter of 10 Billion Downloads from Android Market

Google announced a couple of days ago reaching the mark of 10 billion downloads from the Android Market and the current rate of downloads is 1 billion a month. Google seemed to like announcing milestones as the company proudly let us know that in November more than 200 million Android devices were activated and this number is growing with 550,000 more devices every day.

Now it’s time for the developers to dive into company’s understandable passion for numbers and charts, as Google recently published an infographic on the most successful apps. According to this chart, the most downloaded apps from Android Market are games (25.6%) followed at a huge distance by entertainment apps (12.2%) and tools (11.17%). In the games category, Arcade games ranked the highest (39.25%).

The infographic also lets us know the “Top 10 Most App-crazed countries” and this list was made by downloads per capita. South Korea is the leader, followed by Hong Kong, Taiwan, the US, Singapore, Sweden, Israel, Denmark, the Netherlands and Norway. If we would like to know when the most popular time to download from Android Market is, Google informs us that the peak of the week is on Sundays, at 9.00 PM, while the least popular time to download is on Mondays at 4.00 AM.
