20 Million Recommendations Served, plus Q2 Top Apps
20 million
That's right - 20,000,000 served! Given the popularity of the Apptizr V2 release, our app became the top Productivity app in the App Store back in June. The surge of new users has resulted in a surge of app recommendations made. We're very excited about getting to 20 million recommendations so quickly, and we hope to continue this trajectory.
We haven't shared the top apps on Apptizr in a while, so we took a look at Q2 of this year (April through June). Some things are similar, while there are definitely some changes as well.
Taking a look at the top downloaded free apps in Q2, you'll notice lots of familiar names. One thing we've noticed over the last couple of quarters is the fact that some popular apps stand the test of time and have been constantly popular - Facebook, Pandora, Google, Google Earth, Shazam, Movies all fall in this category. There are always a couple of new comers to the list - this quarter the top of the chart was the new comer "Are you left brained or right brained?"
The Paid list was a bit surprising this quarter, since the Top 10 are all games. Games have always been popular on the App Store, but this was the first time it dominates every spot in the Top 10. Another interesting trend is that more of the apps are priced at $0.99, which is consistent with the general trend on the App Store.
For the full report, you can check out the following presentation posted on SlideShare. It also contains the Top 10 most liked apps that are free and paid. Please let us know if you have any other thoughts.
