AI chatbot apps record gigantic growth as new-age tech takes shape
According to the report, generative AI apps exploded onto the scene in late 2022, with interest in the technology skyrocketing after the release of ChatGPT.
Artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot applications such as ChatGPT recorded the highest growth in consumer usage and spending in 2024, signalling accelerated adoption of the new-age tech concept, even as the overall mobile app market continued with its recovery trend after a year-long slowdown in 2022.
The State of Mobile 2025 report, published by mobile analytics platform Sensor Tower (formerly data.ai), shows that the download rate of AI chatbot apps more than doubled during the year, growing by 112 percent to hit 1.2 billion downloads globally, while consumer spending within the sub-genre jumped 209 percent to $1.1 billion (Sh142.1 billion).
