MOBILE WORLD LIVE - Apr 11 - ~30B apps were downloaded from Google Play and Apple's App Store in Q1, up 10% YOY and the largest quarter ever, according to App Annie. App Annie noted Brazil was also a contributor to iOS download growth, although mature markets including the US, Japan, South Korea and Germany were the biggest drivers. But downloads in China softened, which was attributed to game licensing freezes. Dating app Tinder took top spot for consumer spend on non-gaming apps for the first time, which was attributed to both its own strong year-on-year numbers and Netflix no longer taking on new subscriptions on the app stores.
