Top iOS Magazines & Newspapers Apps

Market Insights

• •The NYTimes: US and Global News (#1) has been the clear leader, holding the top spot for 21 of the last 30 days, which suggests its subscription model and election year coverage are keeping user engagement consistently high.
• •Ground News (#3) seems to be holding its own against the major traditional outlets, probably because its comparative news source feature appeals to users looking for media bias transparency in a crowded information landscape.
• •AstraNovel - Infinite Stories made a significant jump of +30 spots, and its rise alongside other story apps like Galatea (#2) indicates a strong, sustained user appetite for serialized fiction and interactive narratives on mobile.
• •The arrival of The San Francisco Chronicle and Snopes in the rankings looks like a minor trend toward niche and fact-checking sources, though whether they can stick around like the consistent performers Lok Lok or NovelTime remains to be seen.
