The 2026 Q1 App Ecosystem Report is here with a special section for those attending MAU in Vegas this week.
Ad Networks were led by Verve once again after its strong Q4 2025, with other notable breakouts from Snap Inc., TaurusX, adjoe, and Moloco.
Business Tools were led by small but super fast growing Luciq. PayPal also posted strong mobile growth, while emerging companies like AppHarbr stood out.
In attribution analytics, growth was broadly healthy across the category and was led by Tenjin. Open source product analytics platform Matomo also looked great heading into 2026.
One notable absence from the growth list was AppsFlyer, which has historically been one of the category’s largest and most consistent performers but saw a small down tick in tracked market share.
For Development Tools, Divkit posted solid growth. The framework launched in 2025 and is backed by Yandex.
Report is totally free and the raw data is available as a free dataset download for the top 1000 app companies / ad domains to see their quarter-over-quarter 2026 Q1 growth:
