Key Highlights:
• Samsung is looking unstoppable next to fellow Android devices, representing 68.2% of all Android impressions in March.
• iPad devices took share away from iPhone devices this month, accounting for 19.7% share of impressions, up from 17.2% last month.
• This month, we see Books apps slide into the coveted #3 spot with 4.5% share.
• Smartphone users were much busier during the work week in March, but compensated for the decrease on the weekends, where app usage spiked as high as 17.2%.
• The iPad, Kindle Fire, and Samsung Galaxy Tab lost impression shares to the iPad Mini in March.
• Android users are more engaged; despite seeing lower impression share compared to iOS, CTRs for Android devices increased in March, naturally leading to higher eCPMs.
