Not only did they develop first on Android, they may develop only for Android. It's not because they are against iOS - it's because they can't make the model with with iOS (for now).


I dont think listing a popular app that cant be developed on iOS qualifies as support for your argument that developers are switching. Aviate is not the first popular Android only app because of the restrictions on iOS. Swype would qualify as well and I am sure quite a few other apps.

The tide will have turned when developers have the option of using either platform and go with Android first. That may be happening but Aviate is a terrible example for that trend.
