Yahoo has released some of the data captured by its Android homescreen app Aviate, revealing how app usage differs across the day.
Among the findings was the news that, while the average Aviate user has 95 apps installed on their phone, only an average of 35 will be used throughout the day. The data also showed that phone and SMS apps are mostly used during work hours, while media and video apps rise steadily throughout the day, peaking at 10PM.
While the data gives some useful insights into the habits of Android users, it is important to remember that the sample is restricted to those users who have chosen to install the homescreen app, and so it is not a truly accurate representation of Androids broader user-base. Still, the Google Play Store estimates Aviate has been downloaded between one and five million times, producing a large sample to draw data from.
