This AI apps trend may be dead, here’s why
Apptopia’s Adam Blacker described this as “another fad comes and goes,” on Twitter. He also shared a graph that shows the rise and fall of these apps.
From highs to lows
Apptopia claims that it looked at the download trends for Lensa AI and other leading AI photo apps. The company found that this group of AI apps first began to take off around Thanksgiving, then hit their peak in terms of both downloads and in-app purchases around mid-December. At their height of popularity, the apps topped 4.3 million daily downloads and ~$1.8 million per day in consumer spending via in-app purchases. AI photo app Lensa soared to take the number one spot in the US on Apple’s App charts in early December. On December 13, AI photo editing apps dominated Apple’s App Store charts in the US, holding three of the top four positions.
Those numbers have significantly dropped since. On November 11, the apps saw their lowest revenue, at $0.37 million. And, a week later on November 19, they saw the lowest number of downloads, at 0.84 million. As of February 13, these apps saw only around 952,000 combined downloads and around $507,000 in consumer spending, as the numbers continue to drop.
