Top Windows and Mac apps from the Microsoft and Apple App Stores in South Africa

Most popular Windows and Mac apps in South Africa

Meta Platforms' WhatsApp Messenger for Desktop is the most popular free app among Windows and Mac users in South Africa.

On the other hand, the most popular paid app for Windows is HEVC Video Extensions, while Mac users downloaded the paid OneShootRean app more than any other app on the App Store.

OneShootRean?

I'm probably missing something, but why would someone install a free app, like IM apps, etc, that can just be run in a browser? Especially in Windows, you don't wanna be installing unnecessary crap.

 

[Easter Bunny]

The most popular paid app on Mac is called OneShootRean. However, it is unclear what it does or is used for.

oh come on, didn't you do any searches?



oh. ok. nevermind.

The browser version uses 3 times the amount of RAM......

Not actually surprising when you charge $1 for what should be a free system component.

Who pays for archiving tools?

Those who can't get them for free on their system. Mac FTL.

Why would I want to use a browser when I can install it natively?

Besides apps from the Appstores are completely self contained.

So they can't absorb $1 of which most is probably profit?
