In the previous year, WhatsApp was the king with Around 4. That is Meanwhile, mobile phone users number 5. These numbers have been increasing steadily over the years and it is highly likely that app downloads would continue going up as well. And with the need to be connected to others while the novel coronavirus still poses a great threat, smartphone users would remain reliant on social media apps.
Mobile accounts for almost half of internet traffic worldwide. In the last quarter of , mobile devices excluding tablets generated The Manifest reports that app users are most likely to underreport how often they check apps.
The largest percentage of respondents say they check their mobile phones 1 to 10 times daily. But numbers are most likely higher since people often have a hard time estimating their own behavior, especially when it comes to mobile app usage. Past the turbulent , WhatsApp takes the top social network worldwide, with 2 billion mobile users Statista, accessing the app as of January As of the fourth quarter of , mobile app users download between 3. According to Statista, the total number of app downloads in is billion , up from billion in The Philippines, which made its first appearance at tenth during the second quarter, climbed one notch higher at ninth.
In , the number of smartphone users in the US is estimated to be at million. The number of smartphone users in the US is on a steady rise and will steadily increase, with all the advances in telecommunication technology.

As I just said, the mobile app industry is highly competitive. But how many apps are going to be competing with? Take a look at the number of apps available on the Apple App Store. The number of available apps is continuing to rise each year. More people have mobile devices than ever before, and app downloads are at an all-time high. But are app download numbers on the rise because more apps are available?
Or are more apps available because so many more apps have been released? I took the time to create a more in-depth analysis of the Google Play Store. We just finished looking at the Apple App Store availability. So I wanted to jump right in and show you the number of apps available for download on the Google Play Store.
We actually saw a drop in app availability after mid Although the number of apps have been steadily rising ever since. The Google Play Store is highly competitive. Based on the data over the past two years, the trend line should continuing rising for the foreseeable future.
As we already saw, Google Play Store downloads are still rising, even though the number of apps available for download had dropped a bit during that same period. The Apple App Store app availability numbers are rising each year, but the download growth rate is a lower percentage compared to the Google Play Store. You can measure the success of an app category based on penetration. According to Statista, these are the app categories with the highest penetration rate among Android users.
Some of these categories need to be taken with a grain of salt. For example, look at the top categories on the list. Those apps such as communication apps likely come pre-loaded on all Android devices. But aside from that, this list is a good indication of what types of apps Android users have downloaded apps like WhatsApp, Snapchat, Netflix, TikTok, Spotify, and Tinder.
The average smartphone user spends 3 hours and 10 minutes each day using their device. The average person uses 9 mobile apps per day and 30 apps per month.
What does this mean? People are downloading apps and not using them. As you just learned, app usage is not guaranteed after a download. Some of you might be aware of this if your app has already been brought to market. But how do you know if this is happening to you? The best way to measure this is with retention and churn. Basically, you need to track these metrics.
Give users a reason to keep coming back and using your app down the road. No app is perfect. Even the top apps have bugs now and then. Come up with updates and new versions of your app to improve the performance and user experience.
We already saw the data to back that claim. If you look at this list, it makes sense. Mansoor Iqbal Updated: November 10, Tweet Share Learn more. App downloads. Game downloads. Number of downloads.
