Not all apps are created equal, though. Games are, in general, considered the most-downloaded smartphone apps around the world – but they are not topping the download charts in Nigeria. Their numbers pale in comparison with some of the most-used smartphone services out there.
6. BetWay Mobile App
Sports is huge in Nigeria, and sports news along with it. Which is why the demand for the Betway Mobile App. is not out of place. The app offers its users fresh sports news, options from other areas, like awards ceremonies, politics, and similar events, as well as the ability to check the weather.
5. WhatsApp Business
Security and privacy are at the core of our digital lives, no matter if it’s for work or in everyday life. And this is what WhatsApp, Facebook’s encrypted communications service offers its users.

It comes with a special set of tools for businesses – support for landlines, business messaging, and profiles – on top of the traditional WhatsApp suite.
4. JUMIA Online Shopping
JUMIA’s easy-to-use mobile shopping app is among the most-downloaded ones in Nigeria today – not having to browse a crowded store is a boon, especially when there’s a virus spreading around.

3. Audiomack: Download New Music Offline Free
Streaming has become the go-to means of listening to music for pretty much everyone with an internet connection – so it shouldn’t be a surprise that a music streaming app is the third-most-downloaded one in Nigeria today. Audiomack provides free (or paid) streaming and offline listening services to its users, covering every genre from hip hop to afrobeat.
2. GOCASH-Quick Online Loans APP in Nigeria
Smartphones are slowly becoming the finance hubs of our digital lives, always at hand, offering quick access to our money – and, apparently, our loans. Launched this September, the GOCASH app has quickly become one of the most-downloaded apps in Nigeria.
1. WhatsApp Messenger
WhatsApp Messenger is currently the most-downloaded Android app in Nigeria. Facebook’s end-user-facing encrypted messaging service doesn’t only offer free instant messaging and voice calls but it also works on feature phones, making it the perfect choice for our modern digital life. It shouldn’t be a surprise that it’s the most downloaded Android app in Nigeria today.
