iOS market share: 56% in Australia (where I live) [1]; 58% in United States [2]; 47% in UK [3]; 64% in Japan [4]; 60% in Canada [5]; 55% in Denmark [6]; 54% in Switzerland [7]; 55% in Sweden [8].
Yes, I've cherry picked from the minority of countries with near or over half iOS market share. But, they're all high GDP countries with a very valuable customer base. Apple and Google care about these markets, they don't care about global market share.
And none of that (sadly) is about openness. It's about price. The iOS share of mobile spending is basically the inverse: ~70% iOS, ~30% Android.
Spending on hardware, or spending on in-app purchases?
Neither, they are talking about 'the ratio of people buying apps'.
