Women Are Spending More Time And Money On Mobile Games
Thanks to a few hits like "Kim Kardashian: Hollywood" and "Clash of Clans," women are spending a crazy amount of time playing mobile games - roughly 32% of the time they spend on their phones.
Some are also spending a crazy amount of money on these games' in-app purchases.
According to a new report from Flurry, women are dominating the mobile game space in terms of both time and money spent. Flurry found they make 31% more in-app purchases than men and spend 35% more time in gaming apps. Women were also more loyal to apps than men, with 42% higher retention rates.
Flurry obtained these results by analyzing 1.1 million devices around the world.

The categories that skewed female were endless/runner, brain/quiz, social turn-based, bingo, match3/bubble shooter, casino/poker, slots, solitaire, and management/simulation. The categories that skewed male were action - RPG, shooter, sports, tower defense, strategy, and card/battle.
