From someone knee-deep in the iPhone world but with zero experience in the Android world, could you perhaps let me/us know how many downloads and/or unique users a "#1 note app on Android" equates to? I'm genuinely quite curious if it is worth my time to get into Android and well, the more data points on usage numbers the better! Thanks.

The metrics Google gives you are a bit coarse, you only get total downloads and active installs. Not sure if this translates to unique users, iTunes Connect is so much nicer in this regard.

Google Market publicly give out your download numbers in brackets, 50-100 downloads, 100-1k downloads, 1k-5k, etc.

We have two apps in the 250k+ bracket.

We've been on Android for over a year and the last few months have been insane. The day of the Droid launch we saw our traffic triple, and things seem to be picking up steam since then.

Feel free to email me at [username]@snaptic.com or hit me up on GTalk [username]@gmail.com

We love the Android platform and it would be great to have more folks building on it.

Is the 250k+ bracket for a paid app or a free app? I have a free app that is top 10 in its category, and we have 1700 downloads a day on iphone - so it would take me 150 days to reach 250k, or 5 months. How does Android compare?

[aschobel]

All our apps are free.

We haven't publicly announced our numbers, but we have a "nice" multiple of the daily download numbers you posted.

Sorry for being vague, I need to check with my co-founder before talking publicly about this.

Great, thanks for sharing this.
