    Description

    While the number of downloads kept increasing between 2016 to 2022. However, in 2023, the global app downloads stagnated, reaching 257 billion downloads and experienced only a one percent year-over-year increase.

    The app market Mobile apps are projected to generate more than 613 billion U.S. dollars in revenues in 2025, with mobile games making up the biggest revenue share among all app categories. In 2020, gaming and video made up the largest shares of the mobile content market for the year. The ePublishing and education sectors still saw a limited market for their mobile content, despite the increase in apps usage brought by the COVID-19 pandemic disrupting regular school system settings.

    App monetization: a changing landscape As an indispensable part of the smartphone experience, the largest number of apps in the major app stores are free to download. However, in recent years, the growth of global consumer spending on apps has shown users’ healthy appetite for premium services or paid app content. In the second quarter of 2021, Android consumers have spent an average of 5.31 U.S. dollars per handset, after peaking in the last quarter of 2020 reaching an average of 10.6 U.S. dollars per mobile device. As of September 2021, the number of paid apps has shrunk to make up only six percent and four percent of the total numbers in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store, respectively. In comparison, apps offering subscription plans are becoming increasingly popular in the monetization landscape. In 2020, the leading subscription apps in the Apple App Store generated more than 10 million U.S. dollars in global revenues.

    Description

    In 2022, Google Play users worldwide downloaded 110 billion mobile apps, down from 111.3 billion apps in 2021. Generating significantly more downloads than it’s iOS counterpart, the Apple App Store, Android apps on Google Play are available for a wider range of devices than those catering to Apple's closed ecosystem.

    Google’s app sales continue to climb Google’s success was equally reflected in its app revenue which has steadily increased each year, reaching 38.6 billion U.S. dollars in 2020. Since 2019, the highest average number of apps released monthly on Google Play was 141.4 thousand in March 2019. Meanwhile, August 2021 saw the lowest number of apps released within the last two and a half years. Despite its success in the mobile app arena, the tech powerhouse still generates the vast majority of its revenues from advertising.

    Social and dating apps are among most popular in 2021 In the first quarter of 2021, one year into the coronavirus pandemic and lockdowns, the number of available dating apps grew by nearly 24 percent. Meanwhile, travel apps saw relatively little growth during this period. Facebook-owned Instagram was the most downloaded Android app in July 2021. With travel restrictions still in place in many regions of the world, communication and social apps such as Snapchat, TikTok and Telegram also featured among the most popular apps downloaded that month.

    Description

    The global mobile application store market is experiencing robust growth, driven by the increasing penetration of smartphones and rising mobile internet usage worldwide. While precise figures for market size and CAGR are absent from the provided data, a reasonable estimation, considering current market trends and the growth observed in related sectors like mobile gaming and app development, would place the 2025 market size at approximately $150 billion USD. Assuming a conservative Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 15% for the forecast period (2025-2033), this translates to a projected market value exceeding $600 billion USD by 2033. This expansion is fueled by factors such as the continuous evolution of mobile technology, the emergence of 5G networks facilitating faster app downloads and smoother in-app experiences, and the ongoing diversification of app categories, including increased adoption of mobile commerce, subscription-based apps, and augmented/virtual reality applications. Key segments within the market are showing diverse growth trajectories. The Android OS segment is expected to continue its dominance due to its larger global market share, although the iOS segment will remain lucrative, driven by its higher average revenue per user. Similarly, while free apps maintain higher download numbers, the paid apps segment is poised for stronger revenue growth fueled by a willingness of users to pay for premium features and high-quality content. Geographical analysis reveals significant regional variations. North America and Europe currently hold substantial market share, but Asia-Pacific, particularly India and China, are predicted to exhibit the most rapid growth, as mobile penetration and app usage surge in these regions. Challenges such as app store regulations, security concerns around data privacy, and increasing competition among app developers will impact future growth.

    Description

    As of May 2025, nearly 97 percent of apps in the Google Play app store were freely available. The number of free apps on the Google Play Store and the Apple Store alike has been consistently higher than the number of paid apps. By comparison, free Android apps on Amazon Appstore were roughly 81 percent, while paid apps accounted for a share of 19 percent of the total apps available in the store. Mobile apps and consumer spending Mobile apps have become integral to our daily routine, offering convenience and entertainment. In the second quarter of 2024, the total value of the global consumer spending on mobile apps was almost 35 billion U.S. dollars, highlighting the significant role that mobile apps play in the digital economy. As of the third quarter of 2023, consumers spent an average of 5.05 U.S. dollars on mobile apps per smartphone, which underlines the high demand for these digital solutions. App stores commission rates under scrutiny As of August 2023, the standard commission rates on revenues generated from apps hosted on the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store were set at 30 percent. However, between the end of 2020 and mid-2021, both Apple and Google were forced to address the criticism of their app store policies. In 2020, the European Union drafted the Digital Market Act, with the purpose of ensuring a healthy degree of competition in the tech environment. In December 2022, Apple was reported to start planning to allow sideloading and the presence of alternative app stores on its devices. In August 2021, the United States Senate presented the Open Apps Market Act to reduce tech giants‘ control over the digital app market. As regulations are expected to promote competition in the tech and mobile environment, in March 2023, Microsoft was reported to preparing to launch a new mobile gaming store, which will compete with the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store.In 2026, mobile app spending is forecasted to reach 161 billion U.S. dollars and 72 billion U.S. dollars on the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store, respectively. While both Google and Apple started applying some changes in their app store policies in 2021, like lowering commission fees for small publishers generating less than 1 million U.S. dollars in yearly revenues, the two tech giants might face additional restrictions and limitations in all their major markets. In the case of Apple, in 2021, the company updated its App Store policies, allowing developers to offer alternative payment methods. In 2022, Apple updated its review guidelines, requiring developers to share more information about collecting and using data, including disclosing the types of collected data and how it's used.

Description

While the number of downloads kept increasing between 2016 to 2022. However, in 2023, the global app downloads stagnated, reaching 257 billion downloads and experienced only a one percent year-over-year increase.

The app market Mobile apps are projected to generate more than 613 billion U.S. dollars in revenues in 2025, with mobile games making up the biggest revenue share among all app categories. In 2020, gaming and video made up the largest shares of the mobile content market for the year. The ePublishing and education sectors still saw a limited market for their mobile content, despite the increase in apps usage brought by the COVID-19 pandemic disrupting regular school system settings.

App monetization: a changing landscape As an indispensable part of the smartphone experience, the largest number of apps in the major app stores are free to download. However, in recent years, the growth of global consumer spending on apps has shown users’ healthy appetite for premium services or paid app content. In the second quarter of 2021, Android consumers have spent an average of 5.31 U.S. dollars per handset, after peaking in the last quarter of 2020 reaching an average of 10.6 U.S. dollars per mobile device. As of September 2021, the number of paid apps has shrunk to make up only six percent and four percent of the total numbers in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store, respectively. In comparison, apps offering subscription plans are becoming increasingly popular in the monetization landscape. In 2020, the leading subscription apps in the Apple App Store generated more than 10 million U.S. dollars in global revenues.
