Report addresses the problem of too many SDKs for mobile apps

It’s no wonder that software development kits (SDKs) are making mobile game and app developers weary. There are hundreds of possible SDKs that developers can integrate into their apps, allowing them to exploit third-party services such as analytics, monetization, engagement, and other features. So SafeDK is releasing a report today that takes a big picture approach to the problem of “SDK fatigue.”
