    Why can't you wait for a week? That doesn't sound like a long time.

      For apps with a scale, it's a long time

        Because? People wait far longer for much more important things in real life.

          Speed is money. Yes people wait for 9 months for having a baby, doesn't mean you should wait 9 months for an app release. That is not a sound logic.

            Yes, but one week to wait for your app is nothing to complain about.

              let's say you have a bug that makes your app unusable. If you can't get an update our for a week - people are going to just stop using your app.

                You shouldn't have shipped that bug in the first place, I would say. If the bug comes from an Android update, I assume that developers have had access to betas long before the system update is rolled out.
