Crittercism analyzed a total of more than 214 million app launches from November and December 2011 from apps that use its service (see graph at top of this article). There were about 3 times more app launches for iOS that Crittercism analyzed, about 162 million to 52 million. But the analysis examined app crashes as a percentage of each app launch, so this data takes out the issue of there being more iOS than Android apps. In other words for each iOS app and each Android app how often percentage-wise do they crash?

3.66% vs 2.5%? Sounds like a rounding error to me.

2.5%? Do you mean 2.97%?

Ken stabbed off 0.47% without even realizing it.

Yeah, just too lazy to go back to the article.

C'mon Ken. Be a good sport and hang your head in shame for a moment. wink

I still remember the bad old days when the original Apple OS clone, Windows would crash on average 3 times a day.

The two operating systems in question look pretty damned stable to me.

That actually was the point I was trying to make--both seem very stable, and I have yet to see an app take down the whole OS on either.
