  • According to just- released estimates from market intelligence provider Apptopia, Muse’s app on mobile devices has been downloaded more times during its first twelve days on the market than ChatGPT was in the twelve days after its debut.
  • When ChatGPT arrived on mobile, it was made available globally, but only on iOS.
  • In this subset of the data, Muse has now seen 1.8 million downloads to ChatGPT’s 1.3 million.
  • Its growth hasn’t yet stagnated, either; Muse has moved up from its original position as No. 2 overall on the U.S. App Store at once after its launch to now No. 1, as Business Insider reported on Friday.
  • While Apptopia doesn’t have visibility into Meta’s cross-promotion efforts or ads directly, it did note that over 95% of Muse’s users are also Facebook users and 63% are Instagram users.

Meta’s latest AI app, Muse, could be the social giant’s next hit, new data suggests. According to just- released estimates from market intelligence provider Apptopia, Muse’s app on mobile devices has been downloaded more times during its first twelve days on the market than ChatGPT was in the twelve days after its debut.

Muse also has more daily active users than ChatGPT had at the time, the firm found.

When ChatGPT arrived on mobile, it was made available globally, but only on iOS. Muse, meanwhile, is available across both Apple’s App Store and Google Play, but only in the U.S. and Canada.

In this subset of the data, Muse has now seen 1.8 million downloads to ChatGPT’s 1.3 million.

Overall, Muse has seen 2.8 million total installs globally in its first 12 days, the firm also said. Its growth hasn’t yet stagnated, either; Muse has moved up from its original position as No. 2 overall on the U.S. App Store at once after its launch to now No. 1, as Business Insider reported on Friday.

To be fair to the fact that Muse is available across both iOS and Android, while ChatGPT launched on iOS only, Apptopia narrowed the comparison to iOS alone.

While Apptopia doesn’t have visibility into Meta’s cross-promotion efforts or ads directly, it did note that over 95% of Muse’s users are also Facebook users and 63% are Instagram users.
