As per the source, Bloomberg has revealed the report via Oracle which has depicted that they have generated revenue of $31 Billion and having gross profit of $22 billion. Here’s what Bloomberg quoted:


Google Inc.’s Android operating system has generated revenue of $31 billion and $22 billion in profit, a lawyer for Oracle Corp. said in court while disclosing figures Google says shouldn’t have been made public.


Well, the above numbers are unconfirmed but still we can say we have got some metric of what Google has earned.


Now, if we compare the Total revenue of Google generated last year than $31 Billion is quite low since 2011 or when Android became popular. It is even not equal to the Google’s one year earnings.


Hope soon we will see some more information or confirmations from Google side.

In “Express Yourself,” your task is to take a selfie that best matches the emotion the game chooses. In “Color Capture,” you take a picture of an object that best matches the color presented by the game. And in “Tongue Twister,” you repeat a phrase that requires some brain power to enunciate.
