Kinvey, a “back-end as a service” provider, teamed up with Beutler Ink to develop an infographic that compares Apple’s App Store with the Google Play Store. But rather than looking at the usual points of comparison—downloads,  revenue, and number of apps available—Kinvey chose to look at some stats that it says “hint at the personalities of the app powerhouses.”

The resulting infographic covers topics including perceived security, price point distribution, app discovery capabilities, and more.
