Developer Economics is the de-facto research on the app economy and developer ecosystems by VisionMobile, based on the largest, most global developer surveys. The new Developer Economics survey has just been launched, tracking platform Mindshare, monetisation by platform and revenue models, use of tools and investigating opportunities and challenges in mobile development today.

This 10-minute survey is aimed at app developers. Survey respondents can enter a draw to claim great prizes, such as latest handsets and cool gadgets. Each of the respondents can also claim a free, 1-month subscription to Bugsense’s crash reporting tool.

As always, the survey results will become publicly available as a free download – so that respondents can get a sense of what the latest trends are and what other developers have to say.
