Yes , Android is okay to be the most dominant operating system with approximately 80 % market share according to IDC . However, although much less population , iPhone users in the United States seem to spend more money when shopping online .
" We have published a report that the Android user value is a quarter of iOS users , by selling virtual goods such as games , " said Simon Khalaf , CEO of Flurry, which is a mobile advertising company .
" Data from IBM states that the ratio is almost equal in the matter of the sale of physical goods online , " he added , as quoted by Business Insider , Wednesday ( 01/08/2014 ) .
It is essentially that an iOS users tend to buy four times more than an Android user .
