Mobile apps in Malaysia - statistics & facts
The convenience of modern everyday life lies within the swipe of a finger. From communicating through social media apps, ordering food via delivery apps, or creating new connections with dating apps, 98.4 percent of consumers in Malaysia who use smartphones have access to various mobile apps. Because of the practicality and multifunctionality, Malaysians spent nearly 640 million U.S. dollars on mobile apps and in-app purchases in 2023. This has made Malaysia one of the most lucrative markets for mobile apps in Southeast Asia.
