Global app market revenue hit a record $ 34 billion in the second quarter of 2021

 Developers seem to have had a good year in the app market so far, as statistics show that users spent about $ 34 billion on apps in the second quarter of 2021 alone.


App Annie's report on the global app market in the second quarter of 2021 shows that Android and iPhone users spent $ 7 billion more than in the second quarter of 2020 and $ 2 billion more than in the first quarter of 2021. This statistic indicates that a historical record has been set for the application market.

Although quarantine has been abolished in many countries, many people still prefer to spend their free time at home and have fun with mobile apps. The App Annie report shows that iOS users spent about $ 22 billion, up 30 percent from the same period last year.

Comparison charts of spending in different seasons

This figure for Google Play users has increased by 20% to $ 12 billion. The Google Play Store had a total of 25 billion downloads in the second quarter of this year, compared to about 8 billion for the Apple App Store.

The report notes that the app market was formed about 13 years ago with the founding of the App Store, and iOS had only 500 apps at the time. But now the total number of Android and iOS applications has reached more than 5 million.



The growth rate of applications in terms of downloads

Tiktok is still the most popular application on the market right now and has the most downloads. Games, on the other hand, still inject the most revenue into the market, and their average weekly downloads for the fifth consecutive season remain close to $ 1 billion. In addition, an average of $ 1.7 billion is spent on games each week, up 35 percent from two years ago.


App Annie says statistics for the second quarter of 2021 show that mobile usage habits have become a new standard in the past year, driving the economy of the mobile industry. In addition, business apps such as Zoom and Google Mate have been well received, growing by 55% compared to the first quarter of 2021.
