Getting featured on the Today Tab is the dream of every mobile app developer, as it can make an app or game popular overnight.
To help the mobile business community get a better understanding of trends in the App Store’s Today Tab, we have conducted research powered by AppFollow App Store Featured Tool to find out which apps and games Apple’s editors gave preference to in 2019.
We have analyzed 3,167 apps and games that appeared on the App Store's main page across the globe between January and December 2019. We have gone over the main App Store tabs, including App of the Day, Game of the Day, Stories, and Collections.
Some questions we posed
- Which app categories get more visibility in the App Store?
- Which monetization model can help developers appear on the main page?
- What average rating should an app or game have to get editors’ and users’ attention?
