App Store Revenue Up 12% in June, Driven by Non-Gaming Apps

Apple’s App Store experienced a notable revenue surge in June, with global earnings rising 12% year-over-year, fueled by a shift in user spending toward non-gaming applications. This growth highlights evolving consumer preferences and offers new opportunities for developers and Apple alike.

Global App Store revenue reached $8.4 billion in Apple’s fiscal third quarter, an 11.5% increase from the previous year, according to Bank of America, citing Sensor Tower data. Downloads rose by 4% to 8.6 billion, while revenue per download climbed nearly 7% to $0.98, indicating users are spending more per app.

Non-Gaming Categories Gain Momentum

While mobile gaming remains the largest revenue category, its share of total App Store revenue dropped to 45%, down from over 50% in previous years. This decline signals a shift toward other app categories, with non-gaming segments like Photo & Video, Lifestyle, Books, Education, and Utilities each gaining about 1 percentage point in revenue share. Notably, Productivity apps saw the most substantial growth, increasing their share by 2 percentage points.

Productivity apps, including task management, note-taking, and collaboration tools, have emerged as the fastest-growing non-gaming category in the App Store, with their revenue share rising by 2 percentage points. This surge reflects the growing demand for tools that enhance efficiency in an increasingly remote and hybrid work environment. According to recent studies, the global productivity app market is projected to reach $247.9 billion by 2033, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.2%. The Asia-Pacific region, in particular, is expected to drive this growth, fueled by rapid digitization and the adoption of mobile-first work cultures.

Productivity App Marketing Solutions

The rise of remote and hybrid work models has significantly boosted the need for productivity tools, especially in regions like Asia-Pacific, where digital transformation is accelerating. Additionally, advancements in AI and machine learning are enhancing user experiences, with features like automated scheduling and personalized task management becoming standard.

For example, scheduling apps like Calendly, which automate time management, have seen widespread adoption, further underscoring the category’s growth potential.

Opportunities for Apple and Developers

Analysts view this shift as a promising trend. Bank of America notes that growing interest in subscriptions and premium features in non-gaming apps could encourage developers to explore new monetization strategies beyond gaming. This diversification is seen as a long-term advantage for Apple’s app ecosystem.

Regulatory and Investor Outlook

Despite the Epic Games lawsuit challenging Apple’s in-app payment policies, no significant revenue impact has emerged. Investor confidence remains high, with Bank of America holding a Buy rating and a $235 price target, citing Apple’s innovation potential. JPMorgan, with a $230 target, also expresses optimism.

Editor’s Comments

This revenue shift reflects a maturing app market where utility and productivity gain traction over entertainment. Apple’s ability to maintain growth amid regulatory scrutiny is impressive, but future legal outcomes could still influence its model. The trend may spur innovation, potentially strengthening Apple’s ecosystem and stock outlook.
