Leading iPhone apps in the Apple App store worldwide: August 2025

The list of leading iPhone apps in the Apple App Store worldwide by revenue for August 2025 highlights the dominant role of artificial intelligence and social platforms.

ChatGPT secured the top position by a significant margin, generating 25.36 million US dollars.

The next tier of high earners is led by social and retail apps. Threads followed with 14.64 million, reflecting the strong market for real-time social networking.

The major e-commerce platform Temu showed its financial strength, bringing in 11.32 million, slightly ahead of Google Maps at 10.9 million.

Other applications generating over 10 million included TikTok Videos, Shop & Live (10.33 million) and the editing tool CapCut Video Editor (10.16 million).

Even without the dominant revenue of the leader, the figures confirm a lucrative market for apps focused on communication, content creation, and utility, as evidenced by Google and gaming platform Roblox also making the top ten.
