The Google Play Store is losing applications, and many, however, I would have lost half of the applications in just one year.
This is indicated by a new analysis of the artificial intelligence provider Appfigures which has indicated that, from the beginning of 2024 to the present, Google Play Store has gone from 3.4 million applications to only 1.8 million.
As we said, This represents a 47 % decreasea significant purge of a lot of applications that have been removed from the store.
Seeing its main competitor, App Store has stayed the same in the last 12 months, housing around 1.6 million applications.
As commented, the decrease in these applications in Google Play Store will facilitate that users can find better applications, since many were insulous and did not offer any functionality, and were only there, in the market, removing visibility to other more valid applications.
On the reason why the number of applications in the Play Store has decreased, It may be due to the strict requirements of the Google Play and in the application review.
However, Google announced last summer, that it would increase the minimum quality requirements for applications.
Not only have they prohibited defective applications that failed, but also offered little added value and limited content.
Google has confirmed that its new policies can be factors to consider, and that they have also included an expanded set of verification requirements, mandatory application tests for new accounts of expanded human developers and reviews.
They also stand out, that artificial intelligence has helped the detection of threatsmany of these applications were removed faster than with a human reviewer.
Google prevented publication in the Play Store of 2.13 million applications that violated policies and banned 158,000 developer accounts who wanted to publish fraudulent applications.
