Studies show that we spend more time with our mobile devices every day, either working or enjoying our leisure time. And we use apps in these devices . But what are the ones that we use the most?
Sensor Tower is a company dedicated to the marketing of mobile applications, which periodically publishes a report that collects the most popular apps among users, based on its number of downloads.
Based on data collected this year by Sensor Tower, marketing company specialized in mobile apps, the list of the most widely used apps in the world is the following:
10. Netflix
The video service on demand for films and serials, and which has begun to produce its content as well as offering those of third parties, is an indisputable reference in the sector. Saying Netflix is almost like telling a synonym of video on your demand.
9. Twitter
The microblogging service is introducing new features to forced marches to try to capture new users, since, according to the statistics, it has remained stuck, and although in very remarkable figures, it is not progressing further, which is what finally ends counting on investors.
8. Spotify
We can say that it’s like the Netflix of the music on demand. The Swedish company became equal with sucg giants like Apple or Google, who also have their own music services. Although the significant pros of Spotify is that it is available on all platforms and in the cloud.
7. Uber
Controversial and famous in equal parts, it is prohibited in some countries or cities. Uber has emerged as one of the references of a new type of economy (known as shared) in which some trust as a model of a future in which robots could take most of the jobs that humans currently carry.
6. YouTube
A classic and great service based on the content created by the user, since anyone can upload a video to YouTube. It has caused a true viral phenomena, being this service responsible for a large part of the minting of the viral term in this regard.
5. Instagram
The first app in the list of Facebook. Overcoming Flickr, it became the social network of reference in the visual field, for the lovers of photography, creating a whole genre in itself. It is being watched, however, overcome by the first four numbers from our listing.
4. Snapchat
It is based on a postulate that, from good to first, may seem curious, but has proven to be terribly successful, especially among young Americans, which is where it began to spread like wildfire: the content, whether it be photographs or Videos, have an expiration date, and can be deleted automatically.
3. Facebook
The answer to the question – if anyone did it – why Mark Zuckerberg guys spend so much time not only on their mobile apps, but also bringing mobile Internet to the whole world? Because they are increasingly more Users who access the social network from their smartphones and, therefore, ask for an increasingly complete experience.
2. Messenger
Who is not Mark Zuckerberg’s social network yet on his cell phone? Although it is not obligatory to use the app, if we want to communicate with instant messaging (one of the “thanks” of Facebook, we are forced to install this other app.
1. WhatsApp
The ranking closes the instant messaging app owned by Facebook, thus closing an exclusive podium of Facebook, which places four of its mobile apps in the “top 5”.
WhatsApp is, for the operators (who have made a mistake to bring to the market another app that makes them the competition), the service that “killed” the SMS and, therefore, has received constant attacks for that reason from the industrial fabric.
Also criticized for its lack of security, lately the developers have added the encrypted message between its functionalities, as well as supporting sending among users of more types of files and adding options to connect to the service from one computer.
