Which Crashes More? Apple Apps or Android Apps?

By David Murphy

A new report from the crash report analytics company Crittercism indicates that iOS apps tend to crash more than Android apps. But are the numbers truly indicative of an Apple issue, or are they typical of what one might see in the app landscape shortly after a major iOS release?

Crittercism’s crash survey analyzed more than 214 million different app launches between November and December of 2011 to determine the source of most app crashes. And, in doing so, the company came up with the statistic that more iOS apps crashed versus Android apps by around 162 million to 52 million – basically, three times as many iOS crashes.

But here’s the interesting part: Crittercism’s analysis took place just a few weeks after the launch of a major iteration to Apple’s mobile operating system, iOS 5, and during the release of the incremental upgrade iOS 5.0.1. Go figure, then, that the company’s analysis of app crashes between December 1 and December 15 of 2011 indicates that crashes for apps installed on both iOS 5 and iOS 5.0.1 make up 32 percent of all recorded app problems.

“I expect as Ice Cream Sandwich just launched and the new Nexus S phone launched (during the study), we’ll expect the same situation to occur (with Android) as what happened (with iOS),” said Crittercism CEO Andrew Levy in an interview with Forbes.

INTERNET SEARCH GIANT Google might have revealed plans to launch a Nexus tablet within the next six months.

Google’s chairman Eric Schmidt spoke of the firm’s plans to launch a high-end tablet to Italian web site Corriere Della Sera. The Nexus brand isn’t specifically mentioned but we imagine Google would use the same name as its smartphones.

Schmidt said, “In the next six months we plan to market a tablet of the highest quality.”

The Nexus smartphones have been consistently popular and successful so it’s possible that the firm wants to extend that success into the tablet market. The tablet would have to pack some serious specifications to rival the Ipad 2 and Ipad 3, whatever that turns out to be.
