Android vs. iOS: Revenue gap 'appears to be closing,' claims Racing Rivals developer

It is known that you can’t make as much money on Android as you can on iOS. At least one developer is finding that isn’t necessarily the case.

Racing Rivals developer Cie Games finally unleashed its driving game on the Google Play store, months after it hit iOS. After four weeks on Android, Racing Rivals has already surpassed 5 million installs on Android, which the company notes is a faster adoption rate than it enjoyed on Apple’s mobile devices. Android owners aren’t only downloading the free-to-play app, but they’re also making in-app purchases at a rate that rivals their iOS counterparts — although Cie won’t disclose how much the game is currently generating.
