Google
has some rather impressive numbers to share. And share it did, in the
earnings’ call for this quarter. The company reports $14 billion
revenue, for the quarter ending in June, which is up a massive 19% over
the same quarter last year. But these are the numbers that Android fans would be waiting for - Larry Page reports that there are now 900+
million Android phones globally, and that number is being added to on a
daily basis to the tune of 1.5 million.
Over 50 billion apps have been downloaded from the Google Play Store, and the company reports that it paid out more to developers in the 6 months this year, than the whole of 2012. Larry Page also talked about Google Maps
and the updates it received, “This quarter we completely revamped our
maps UI. The map is the screen, with no clutter around the edges.
There’s more information about your surroundings, so it’s easier to
explore. And we’ve launched a new, improved navigation feature—with
notifications about incidents before you leave, and updates to save time
if traffic conditions change. Best of all, this new maps experience is
now available on almost all devices you’d be likely to use.”
