We’re not going to include apps that come pre-loaded on stock Android devices. This means we’re excluding Google Play Services (5.959 billion “downloads”), Gmail (3.945 billion), Google Maps (2.488 billion), Google News (2.341 billion) YouTube (approximately 5 billion), and a few others.We’ve used Android Rank’s data to determine these numbers. Now, that’s enough preliminary info. Here’s the list! Not everyone is happy though. It has nearly 10 million one-star ratings. Perhaps it’s justified; the app is bloated with pointless features that few people bother to use.The presence of Messenger in second position reinforces the control that Zuckerberg’s empire has over the smartphone app marketplace.
1.Facebook & 2.Facebook Messenger
Messenger has grown in popularity in the last 18 months, with the increased availability of bots making the service more useful than ever.
3. WhatsApp
2.979 billion downloads
Do you notice a theme developing? Facebook apps hold all three of the top spots. The world’s most popular instant messaging tool has been under Facebook’s ownership since a $19 billion buyout in early 2014.
4. Instagram
1.843 billion downloads........Instagram is yet another Facebook-owned app, which the company acquired in 2012.It has significantly fewer negative reviews than its big brother, with just two million (out of 61 million) giving the app a single star.
5. Skype
6. Twitter
8. Clean Master: Space Cleaner & Antivirus
9. Candy Crush Saga
10. Snapchat
