A study by Flurry Analytics reveals that Apple's App Store generates the most revenue for developers, followed by the Amazon Appstore, then Google Play trailing far behind.
Flurry examined a basket of top-ranked apps that use in-app purchases to generate revenue. The apps had a similar presence across iOS, Amazon and Android.
We start by taking the revenue generated in the iTunes App Store and setting it to 100%. We then compare the relative revenue generated from Amazon and Google to the amount of revenue generated by the iTunes App Store. Doing so, we find that Amazon Appstore revenue is 89% of iTunes App Store revenue, and Google Play revenue is 23% of iTunes App Store revenue.
This means that for every $1.00 an app generates in the App Store, it would generate $0.89 in the Amazon Appstore and $0.23 in Google Play.
