The most installed apps in 2022
In the previous years, only calling and messaging was carried out with the phone, but nowadays it is almost unbelievable that a person can spend time without a phone. smart phones have become a vital figure that connects us with playing games, listening to music, reading the news, watching movies and even our jobs where we earn money, so we need it even when we go to the toilet, but which app was in fashion in 2022, where we spend our time, let’s see what attracts us.
Top global apps by downloads, 2022
Here is the list of most installed apps.
- TikTok
- WhatsApp Messenger
- Snapchat
- Telegram
- Shopee
- Facebook Messenger
- Spotify
- Zoom Cloud Meetings
Top global apps by consumer spend, 2022
Although the download order is like above, if we evaluate the applications based on time passing, the following order is as follows.
- TikTok
- YouTube
- Tinder
- Disney+
- HBO Max
- Tencent Video
- Google One
- Piccoma
- iQiYi
- QQ Music
The fact that these rankings are so different are the uses promised by the applications. Since youtube, tiktok, and instagram are areas where users publish both short-term and long-term videos – memories – stories, it is necessary to spend a certain amount of time for the application, but since Disney +, HBO Max hosts series and movies, the user is expected to spend about 2 hours in a single login. Other applications, on the other hand, can be used between 1 hour and 5 hours daily, as they allow us to listen to music in the background while doing business or dealing with another platform. In short, although we mostly install social media platforms on our phones, the areas where we spend the most time are actually the platforms that provide movies, series and music designed to fill our spare time.
Only social media apps
If we want to categorize only on social media apps, the order is as follows.
- TikTok 656 million
- Instagram 545 million
- Facebook 416 million
- WhatsApp 395 million
- Snapchat 327 million
- Twitter 171 million
- MX TakaTak 128 million
- Discord 121 million
- WeChat 119 million
- Josh 111 million
Although Instagram was at the top of this list before tiktok was presented to the user, it seems that now tiktok has completely taken its place.
