Meta’s Muse is outpacing ChatGPT’s early mobile launch
Meta’s new AI agent Muse has racked up more downloads and daily active users in the U.S. and Canada than ChatGPT did over the same period after its mobile debut, according to new estimates from Appfigures.
Meta's newly released AI app, Muse, is proving to be a major success on mobile devices, surpassing ChatGPT's early mobile launch in terms of downloads and daily active users, according to a report from market intelligence provider Apptopia. In the first twelve days of their respective launches, Muse has seen 1.8 million downloads in the U.S. and Canada, compared to ChatGPT's 1.3 million downloads. The app has also achieved 2.8 million total installs globally during this period, while ChatGPT has only reached 1.3 million.
Muse has rapidly gained popularity, moving from No. 2 to No. 1 in the U.S. App Store shortly after its launch, putting it ahead of ChatGPT. This growth trend has continued, with Muse now boasting 642,000 daily active users on iOS, which is higher than ChatGPT's 231,000 users at the same point post-launch. Even when comparing just iOS daily active users, Muse remains ahead of ChatGPT.
Apptopia attributes these figures to Muse's broader availability across both iOS and Android platforms, as well as its integration with Meta's popular apps Instagram and Facebook, as well as WhatsApp. Although Apptopia relies on third-party estimates rather than Meta's internal figures, the data suggests that Muse has the potential to become Meta's newest top app.
