There is something happening on Android Market right now and it is a pretty big deal to developers. As owner of three apps (DroidIn, DroidIn-Lite and Hire*A*Droid) I’ve recently noticed that:
- Overall and current download numbers are considerably down.
- Number of reviews is about 1/3 down
Other people are starting to notice – there is discussion on Google Developer Groups and the Android Market forum as well as some noise on Twitter
What makes it even weirder is that my developer console (Android Market developer site) still shows old numbers which is probably due to caching.
No official word yet on what it is. Any other developers experiencing similar issues?
