Have you ever thought of the apps you have downloaded ever since you got your first phone? Not really? Prepare to have your mind blown as we dig into the unbelievable world of app downloads on the App Store and Google Play. Yes, it's time for some number-crunching fun that will leave you shocked and entertained!
The brave explorer at AF went on a data-driven journey to discover how many apps reach the magical download figures each month. Believe us when we say that the outcomes are nothing short of astounding!
First and foremost, how many applications get a thousand downloads in a month? Or a hundred? What about a million? Prepare for a wild adventure with the numbers! With data estimations, the researcher browsed the App Store and Google Play. But hold on tight; this isn't just a walk in the park; we have more exposure than ever, courtesy of extended country coverage.
Let's break it down now, shall we? Apps were classified based on their download numbers ranging from 100 to the extremely unusual 10 million or more.
Get ready to be dazzled! Over half of the apps (47.7%) in the previous month received 100 to 1K downloads. Who would have guessed? A stunning 33.3% of downloads on both platforms were between 1K and 10K.
Now for the shocking part! When those numbers are added, 80% of applications and games receive fewer than 10,000 downloads monthly. At the top end, that's about 300 downloads every day. Remember that this only covers apps with over 100 monthly downloads, leaving out the vast majority of the App Store and Google Play.
Wait, we're not done yet! The 10K - 100K team is up next on the app-o-meter. They are a unique species that prefers sponsored advertisements and Apple Search advertisements. Isn't it fancy?
It's time to put yourself in the spotlight! In the recent month, just a teeny-tiny 3.8% of apps reached the 100K to 1M download threshold. And it appears Google Play has the upper hand in this area, with more apps than the App Store.
But wait, we're already in the stratosphere! Brace yourselves since the 1M to 10M download group is the most exclusive, with a minuscule 0.5% presence. We're talking about significant players like Twitter and the TikTok and Instagram App Store versions. Isn't that impressive?
We've finally arrived at the rarest of the rare—the 10M+ category. It's so tiny that we can practically count its members on one hand. A total of 21 applications have made the cut, with Google Play hosting the majority of them and the App Store granting only one entry to this exclusive club.
So there you have it, a whirlwind tour into the bizarre world of app downloads. Who knew numbers could be so entertaining? You'll have a fresh respect for the rare and not-so-rare jewels floating about in the digital sea the next time you download an app!
