Despite the drop in growth, Android ad requests have grown a staggering 338 percent since January. -    Apple OS ad requests dropped by nearly 14 percent in May after an 8-percent drop in April. Ad requests for Apple's iPad, however, soared 160 percent from April to May. -    Apple is still the leading mobile operating system in Millennial's U.S. network with a 48-percent share of all smartphone ad impressions. RIM's Blackberry is second with 19 percent of the share, followed by Android, which rose 5 percent in May for a 15-percent share of the total ad impressions. -    In a new measurement devoted to mobile developer trends, social media ranked second behind gaming despite a 124-percent month-to-month growth in app revenues on mobile devices. Of the developers who focused on a single platform, 56 percent were focused on Apple while 29 percent were focused on Android. ![Linc Wonham](https://www.websitemagazine.com/hubfs/Linc%20Wohnam.jpeg) [Linc Wonham](https://www.websitemagazine.com/mobile/author/linc-wonham) I am a longtime content specialist with vast experience in ideating, creating and editing articles, infographics, books, ebooks, white papers, insights guides, corporate POVs, video scripts and more for omnichannel promotion and distribution on behalf of publishers, brands and creative agencies.
