Market Research
If you are a market researcher or an app developer, this feature will not disappoint you! The Category Ranking can help you better understand the latest trends in the app market.
App Market Trends
By using category rankings, market researchers can quickly grasp market trends and gain insights into the latest developments in categories of interest.
Through category rankings, developers can understand which types of applications are more popular in the market, allowing them to adjust their development focus accordingly.
Simply search for your target app on the FoxData platform, then track the app to easily view its Category Ranking.
You can not only see the real-time hourly and daily rankings but also view rankings from the past year. We also support custom date selection to view trends over specific periods.
This can help market researchers observe app trends and value from multiple time dimensions. Overall rankings, category rankings, and more will provide you with a multi-perspective reference.
👋 For example, a market researcher might discover that an app's rankings have been steadily rising over the past three months. Although its overall ranking is relatively low, it ranks within the top 5 in its category. This indicates a certain level of investment value. Currently, the user base for apps in this category is small, but there is significant market potential, suggesting future growth possibilities and initial investment potential.
👏Expert Tips: Of course, to truly assess its investment value, you need to consider other factors such as user growth trends, market competition, and revenue models. If these factors also show positive trends, then the app might be worth investing in.
We recommend that when researching the product market, market researchers and developers should also look into the estimated downloads and revenue of the app on the FoxData platform, in addition to the Category Ranking.
Moreover, market researchers and developers should study the top, middle, and bottom-tier apps within the target category. Investigating apps at different levels can help you gain a comprehensive understanding of the overall market landscape and its value.
Global Market Trends
Market researchers or developers also need to confirm the global value of the app they want to invest in or develop.
Fortunately, FoxData supports viewing the Global Ranking. This feature allows you to easily discover in which countries the app you are interested in performs better and where it is more suitable for localization.
