Apple apps statistics

Whole-store figures for Apple, from the StoreTally census. Each store's usage means something different (rounded users, rarely refreshed installs, daily users, ratings, exact installs), so every store has its own page rather than a place in a table.

1,477,273 known · 1,476,040 crawled · 1,443,578 live · 32,462 delisted (Removals tracked since 5 Sep 2026)

Listings tracked over time

Live listings StoreTally has crawled. The line also rises as the census reaches more of the store, not only as the store grows.

Weekly growth across the store

Live listings by ratings gained this week, as a percentage · 114,953 of 1,443,578 measured so far · a young census: many weekly figures still compare against a listing's first sighting · Apple publishes no install counts, so it is measured on ratings · listings under 100 ratings are not measured

Monetization (live listings)

The store's US price, as a share of every live listing · 0 % have no price read yet (not recrawled since prices were first captured), so free and paid count only the listings read so far, not the store's full split · Apple's data carries no in-app purchase flag, so its free apps are not split by in-app purchases

Free (in-app purchases not known) 1,397,930 (97 %)
Paid 44,655 (3 %)
Price not read yet 407 (0 %)

Concentration

The top 10 developers hold at least 16.3 % of the store's ratings · their share is counted over the store's 2,000 largest listings (their smaller listings are left out, so the true share can only be higher), against every live listing's ratings
