”The perils of possession without utilization”
Horace Dediu makes a chart of ”Possession vs. Utilization for Android and iPhone”.
This data seems to support the hypothesis that Android users are disproportionately less willing to spend money (note that the data does not say that users don’t have money, but simply that they are not spending it).
Which is why my current idea for a smartphone app will be realized as an iOS app, not an Android one. (Click through to the original post to se the actual charts.)
