Global mobile app consumer spending 2016-2022

Published by L. Ceci, Apr 21, 2023
In 2022, gross consumer mobile app spending amounted to 167 billion U.S. dollars, down from 170 billion U.S. dollars in 2021. Consumer app store spending was strongly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021, but spending trends are slowly normalizing after after a two-years boost in app usage and engagement. Additionally, a possible recession in several key global markets could impact users' spending behavior further.
