The most downloaded mobile apps in the world in June

TikTok and Instagram continued their years-long tussle. This time TikTok was the winner, beating Instagram's 36M downloads with 37M downloads, according to our estimates. Not a big difference, and mainly the result of Instagram getting slightly fewer downloads on Google Play.
