Quoting Marc Andreessen “Software eats the world”, meaning software – and especially mobile – permeates every business vertical on the planet and, as a consequence, we see a desktop or mobile app software developer profession popularity skyrockets. In 2022, the total number of developers, who were building for mobile, reached 27 million. We should also mention that both platforms, along with application development industry in general, provide app developers with flexibility of working remotely, ability to relocate anytime they need and, given stable high demand, confidence about their future financial security. On the other hand, Android, that has the widest adoption worldwide, especially in Latin America and Europe, also secures salary of an Android developer that is on par with the iOS app developer salary. Thanks to the Apple’s skyrocketing financial success with the mobile tech, the iOS developer salary has a special appeal to software developers who wants to be on the bleeding edge of mobile and be paid one of the top salaries in the software industry. With a rapid advance of the mobile app ecosystem that features growing adoption of the Internet of Things ecosystem, Blockchain, Machine Learning and AI technologies, as well as AR and VR (think Meta’s Metaverse), more and more people decide to join a multi-million army of mobile app developers.
