The Apps Scorecard Report


This report explores how the words "apps" and "widgets" are used for applications that are aimed for use on smartphones, tablets, netbooks and Internet-connected TV sets. Yahoo was the first to popularize the "widget" word with its widgets that link selected online services to enabled Sony, LG, Samsung, Panasonic and other TV sets and Blu-ray players. Apple made the word "app" a part of the language when it introduced them for its iPhone.

Both apps and widgets are self-contained pieces of software developed for specific platforms like an operating system or for standards that specific platforms support.

“Apps” is typically used for portable and mobile devices. “Widgets” is usually applied to software that runs on an Internet-connected smart TV set or Blu-ray player.

In all this widget-app confusion, "The Apps Scorecard Report" examines how the company to watch is Google. Google, unlike Apple, is using its Android OS on TVs as well as on smartphones and tablets. Google has said most Android apps that run on smartphones and tablets will also run on Google TV.

To write an app once and have it run anywhere is a developer's dream.

This means that every Android device, whether a TV set or PC, will become another opportunity to make a sale.
