The Most Downloaded Mobile Apps in March 2021

Facebook and Google are indeed on top. So much so that the top 10 across the App Store, Google Play, and combined, are nearly identical. In another return to normalcy, TikTok’s unstoppable is back on display. With demand for chat service Telegram down in March, TikTok is back to being the king of downloads.

Zoom, Snapchat, and Spotify were the only other apps to make it into the top 10. The first two aren’t strangers to the list, but Spotify is making a debut. It’s been close for quite a while now, but before March hasn’t cracked it yet. More on that, below.

Together, the most downloaded apps in the world across the App Store and Google Play were downloaded roughly 352 million times, about 6% higher than February’s batch.
