Many found new ways to entertain themselves, while others found new love for existing services.

Its top ten are mostly entertainment apps, such as those for video streaming, live streaming, etc.

To no one’s surprise, the top grossing non-game app worldwide for June 2020 was TikTok. The app raked in USD 90.7 million in user spending. According to the the report, around 89 percent of its revenue came from China with just 6 percent from the United States.

At the start of the year, TikTok was already a high grosser at the tenth spot. It started growing, claiming the top spot last April. Their revenue grew as much as 8.3x from May to June.

It remains to be seen how some of the apps will fare as the months progress. But one thing’s for sure, the longer we stay at home, the more time we’ll spend on these apps.
