Most of the world relies on two main sources—Google Play and iOS—to download apps. China is not most of the world.
Because of various government-imposed restrictions, the country boasts many app stores. And as you can imagine, it is particularly difficult to reliably track key performance metrics, discover new trends, understand SDK usage, etc.
China has an estimated 500 million smartphone users, which dwarfs the user base of nearly every other country on Earth. Because China is one of the biggest—and potentially lucrative—markets out there, Apptopia is starting to invest heavily in expanding our data set into this market.
We’ve decided to start with the three most popular Chinese app stores:
- Tencent
- Quihoo 360
- Xiaomi
We are starting by providing key meta data points as well as a full SDK Analysis (including what SDKs are both installed and used by these apps). You can see a full list of what data points we provide here.
This data is available immediately as an upgrade via our API.
Two Important Notes:
- We are planning to add a new Chinese App Store every 3-4 weeks, so if you are interested in a specific store (not listed above), please just ping us and we are more than able to provide it.
- If you are interested in upgrading or learning more about our Chinese App Store data, please reach out to us at Sales@apptopia.com or just click the button below!
