Fiksu: iOS Downloads Hit All-Time High in October
User acquisition and marketing company Fiksu has released its indexes for October 2014, which show the full impact of the release of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, as well as Apple’s iOS 8 operating system. The App Store Competitive Index, which tracks the average number of daily downloads for the top 200 free iPhone apps in the US, hit an all-time high in October, at 7.8 million. That’s an increase of 42 percent over September and an increase of 39 percent year-over-year.
These increased downloads were driven heavily by the release of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, as users purchased new phones and immediately went to work downloading their favorite (or even new) apps.
