VBLUE42 Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 When android phones actually start selling in numbers to compete with the iPhone. Then maybe you will see some support. It cost a lot of money for these companies to to support numerous external devices. When that is the case, they are only going to support the most popular sought after device. That, at this point and for a long while is the iPhone and the iPod. I wouldn't expect that change for many years if it ever does. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dawgbone Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 These phones are somewhat built from the same foundation... It should be somewhat easy to port over... Android is catching on though.... just keep writing Pioneer about it, it may happen... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CamelTowing Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 Pioneer laid off another 25% percent of its workforce today. Don't hold your breath Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It looks like many years has turned into already happened http://moconews.net/article/419-android ... rry-in-q1/ I did notice today that AVIC feeds is available for the BlackBerry now as well so I imagine it is just a matter of time before the Android version is released.

VBLUE42 Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 It looks like many years has turned into already happened Very true, for now. But look at the what Apple is up against. Were talking about one phone, from one company, on one carrier and Apple has been able to surpass and keep for a long while with several companies with several phones on several carriers. And no one has sold 1.7 million of anything in three weeks as Apple did with the i4 on launch as far as I know. Even after the whole nonsense antenna issue with the i4, studies show hundreds of thousands are still waiting for the i4 to become available enough to get their hands on them. Apple still clearly has the momentum and as soon as the exclusive carrier thing is done (which according to a statement from AT&T issued today will happen soon) Apple will again be on top of the heap. Regardless the iPhone and the Android devices will still be the most sought after of the bunch from here on out. I am surprised however that Pioneer decided to support the BB with AVIC FEEDS over the Android platform. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That, at this point and for a long while is the iPhone and the iPod. I wouldn't expect that change for many years if it ever does. Android has outsold iPhone every month for the past 8 months now. This was from last May in 2010. "For the first time since Android was released, it finally sold more phones than the iPhone. NPD Group is reporting that Android is the number two selling platform behind Blackberry in the US. Blackberries account for 36% of the market share, Android has 28% while the iPhone brings up the rear with 21%." http://www.pcworld.com/article/196035/android_outsells_the_iphone_no_big_surprise.html Android Outsells the iPhone - No Big Surprise Google's OS is available on a variety of handsets, and those handsets are often much cheaper than an iPhone.

VBLUE42 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Actually iOS devices cary 44% of the mobile market so Apple has the lead. And although there are more Android phones sold, no single phone has ever out sold the iPhone. Android is on 10 or more phones across all major carriers as well as smaller regional carriers and that is the only reason Android phones outnumber the single phone on only two carriers. Even then, look how long it took for Android phones combined to outsell the iPhone. The point here is, the iphone is still the singular most popular phone in the world and that is what companies like Pioneer, Kenwood, Alpine, and JVC look at when building support. Regardless Android support will be added once Google decides to settle on a common version long enough so these companies can build support for it. Remember, the issue isn't Pioneer here, its Google with Android. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
donniesd Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Actually iOS devices cary 44% of the mobile market so Apple has the lead. ROFL You must be a apple fanboy. I do not know where you get your numbers. But Gartner & IDC are 2 of the most reputable IT research firms. Apple has no where 44% of market share https://socialtimes.com/gartner-idc-agree-about-mobile-marketshare-in-2015-but-disagree-about-2011_b56708 http://www.pcworld.com/article/226339/android_market_share_growth_accelerating_nielsen_finds.html http://www.comscore.com/Press_Events/Press_Releases/2011/4/comScore_Reports_February_2011_U.S._Mobile_Subscriber_Market_Share When we go google "ios 44%" Only thing that comes up is what "apple" says its market share is. humm wounder why. http://www.iphonedownloadblog.com/2011/06/06/ios-owns-44-of-the-market/ http://singst.blogspot.com/2011/06/ios-owns-44-of-market-200-million.html http://www.howaboutchina.com/2011/06/07/apple-said-ios-44-market-share-as-the-first-major-mobile-os/ Just saw your sig. :rolleyes: Explains your posts.

VBLUE42 Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 You can skew your results to say anything you want. The reports you posted are referring to just the iPhone's market share even though it says iOS. Keep in mind iOS runs on many Apple products and that is what companies like Pioneer look at when building support for. It remains to be seen what impact Android OS with other devices other then phones will do for there market share but at this point it isn't stacking up to Apple's.
