A new survey performed by Admob has discovered that iPhone and iPod touch owners are mostly male and iPhone users are older and have less time to use downloaded applications than those who have an iPod touch.
AdMob’s Mobile Metrics report for January 2010 found that iPod touch users download an average of 12 applications per month (37 percent more than iPhone and Android users). It was also found that those with an iPod touch also spend 100 minutes per day using applications (25 percent more than both Android and the iPhone).
iPod touch users are also considerably younger- 78 percent of them were below the age of 25. Compared with the iPhone, where only 25 percent of users are under the age of 25.
When it comes to satisfaction, iPhone users ranked highest, with 91 percent saying they would recommend their device. The iPod touch had an 88 percent recommendation rate. Android users have reported satisfaction as well, with 84 percent saying they would recommend their handset. Palm’s WebOS came in last with 69 percent.
The survey performed by Admob was based on 963 total respondents, with 318 Android users, 244 iPhone, 356 iPod touch and 45 WebOS.
