iOS Web Browsing Share Is Double That of Android
The latest figures from Net Applications show that iOS is far ahead of Android in terms of web browsing share. iOS accounts for 2.38% of all web browsing by OS (getting near to half of Mac’s share now) compared to just 0.76% for Android.
That’s a huge lead, especially considering that there are so many more Android devices out on the market than iOS devices. It’s also another good indicator that the whole Android vs. iOS debate is not all about numbers of units sold.

I think it actually demonstrates the dominance of the iPad in the tablet space. I use the iPad tons more to for browsing than either my Android or iPhone, the experience is just so much better. I much more likely to have a longer “browsing session” on the tablet, while with either phone it’s more likely to be a quick check a few things out type session.
Otherwise, these numbers don’t correlate at all with what the ad networks report, as far as Android vs. other mobile operating systems.
