    Notes: Mobile application installs grew by 346% year-over-year in Q2, representing a significantly faster rate of growth than experienced during 2014, reports Kenshoo in a recent study. Ad spend (+293%) also saw rapid growth, though these metrics are at least in part affected by new entrants and titles tracked. Of note, while costs-per-click (CPC) grew by 16%, cost-per-install (CPI) dropped by 12%, with the CPI gap between iOS and Android sharply narrowing this year.
