Worldwide Revenue for Music Production Apps?
I am guessing fifty mil US before Apple’s cut.
Comments
My guess would be much, much, MUCH higher than that.
Oh, you said only music apps. OK, only 'much' higher - delete two muches.
Music production apps?
Here is streamy thingies...

Yeah, I mean music production apps.... but if the mainstream music apps are less than fifty I may be close. @AudioGus @audio_DT
I don't think I could even wager, curious if any devs 'n such chime in!
Well @AudioGus, my totally irrelevant calculation was: I spent $1000 last year on apps and this year will be half that, I’m sure.... so, 100,000 users spending $500 = 50,000,000. Since it is more likely 500,000 users spending $100 in a year, same result. So some combination of all that... Like 10 million users using free apps and 10 million spending $50? It always comes out to 50 extra large if you rig it!
Maybe I’m biased by the forum base here but I’m not sure music production apps are used by that many people. And if Smule generates ~3.6MM per month, I gotta believe that music production apps is much less.
Agree. Also I estimate that 80% of all revenue goes to a few big devs of music production apps. What I would be intersted in which companies that are. Anybody some kowledge about that?
This looks useful, published yesterday: https://portnews24.com/music-production-app-for-phone-market-is-booming-worldwide-steinberg-apple-image-line-korg-moog-music-casio/187869/ .

Leading music apps on Google, a much smaller platform for music production and audio more generally, no? https://www.statista.com/statistics/695747/top-music-and-audio-apps-in-google-play-by-revenue/
Yeah, maybe you're right. I might investigate this properly at some point because it's an interesting question.
Curious...
I would say that for general audio apps it is probably close to equal. In face the month of June 2019 saw more revenue for Pandora on android as opposed to Apple.
Interesting. I don't even know what Pandora is!
@audio_DT Pandora is a streaming service similar to Spotify, but it is more like radio stations tailored to your interests. If we put that into context: streaming services are widely used, especially in comparison to music production apps. I was however shocked that FL Studio Mobile had 180K for one month...on android. So I may revise my original position. Definitely curiouser and curiouser.
Cheers. Interestingly enough, I gave my email address for the 'report' thing I mention above, and I got a call from Palo Alto today (I live in the UK!). Anyway, the guy on the other end was trying to sell me the report. I gave him short shrift. But the message is: don't bother saying you want the 'sample report', which, it turns out, you have to bloody pay for.
@audio_DT That’s awful. On behalf of the US I apologize.
Oh, I wouldn't worry about that - it's not a US thing, it's a capitalist thing. I'm sure these types of 'research' firms follow the same tack the world over.
