Android apps got the edge as we had some big name applications finally make their way to Google’s platform and Instagram is the first and most prominent example.
Of course, there’s a ton of apps that couldn’t make it to the top five, but nonetheless deserve a mention. So don’t hesitate and let us know which awesome apps you discovered in April in the comments section - do you think some should have been in the top five and didn’t make it? Sound off below.
