Comment on A Developer’s Guide to the Wild West of App Discoveryparent

I also find it extremely misleading when the stores quote statistics such as "over 93 percent of all ios apps have been downloaded every month" as proof that people are finding the apps they want. What they don't disclose is that the majority of these downloads are probably just 1 time downloads by the app creator on their own device.

There is a saying that springs to mind, “Never trust a statistic you didn't fake yourself”.
