App Annie Corporation has compiled statistics of the most beloved and the most downloaded Google Play apps over the past four years - from 2012 to 2016. Perhaps one of them is on your phone.

10. Flashlight by Surpax

The list of the most popular and downloaded applications for the Android OS begins a little unexpectedly - from a flashlight. Yes, yes, the Flashlight application does just that - it turns your smartphone into a flashlight. With adjustable brightness and flicker support.

9. Twitter

The first application on the list of most downloaded, serving an extensive social network - Twitter. Every day, more than 500 million people share their thoughts with each other in a short form, and also post photos and videos.

8. Viber

This application allows you to exchange text messages and calls around the world, as well as call at reduced rates to those who do not already have Viber installed. And after concluding an agreement with Western Union, Viber users can also make money transfers.

7. LINE

The most downloaded messenger among the countries of Southeast Asia - free voice and video calls, messaging, conversations of any length. The company makes a profit by selling stickers, an upgraded version of emoticons, and products in Line Games. The main difference between Line and Skype, WhatsApp and others is the presence of a built-in social network that supports blogs and comments. By the way, according to App Annie LINE became the most profitable application in GooglePlay for 2012 - 2014. And all this emoticons, games and advertising.

6. Skype

One of the oldest and most well-known services for exchanging calls and messages still does not give up its positions, although it is being pressed by younger rivals. Network operators are also nervous, which goes as far as trying to ban Skype or trying to block its traffic. But, fortunately for ordinary users, progress cannot be stopped.

5. Clean Master

Alas, access to the Internet from a mobile can turn into a lot of trouble. Therefore, the installation of an antivirus (as well as an optimizer, an accelerator of work and a privacy protector in one bottle) has become an urgent necessity. In addition, Clean Master is able to control the temperature of the processor, helps to get rid of unnecessary files and not drown in a sea of applications - and yet both tend to accumulate to unimaginable sizes.

4. Instagram

Lovers of capturing in eternity each step appreciated this application - now it’s even easier to publish photos of your breakfast, jogging, shopping, brushing your teeth and other important events in life. Moreover, now the photo can also be edited - change the brightness, contrast, shadow, light, perspective and more (maybe even remove extra pounds). And also find new and interesting among four hundred million Instagram users around the world.

3. Facebook Messenger

Another free messaging service, now under the Facebook label. You can send messages to people in the phone book, create group chats, share photos and videos. Need free calls? You are welcome. And there are also notifications about when the user received the message (and how much he no longer answers after that). And geolocation is present - now chat participants and friends know when you are in the same city with them.

2. WhatsApp Messenger

WhatsApp Messenger is the second most downloaded download on GooglePlay. WhatsApp allows you to exchange messages, make calls around the world and send photo and video files. And you don’t have to pay for it. You only need to have access to the Internet on your mobile. Not only the network operators are not happy about the growing popularity of WhatsApp and other messengers - according to rumors, their losses already reach tens of billions of dollars.

1. Facebook

The brainchild of Zuckerberg has long enslaved the world. About 700 million Internet users access Facebook every day. And the most downloaded application on GooglePlay - Facebook allows you to do this also from your mobile, including additional amenities like notifications, downloading photos and videos from your phone, access to games and applications, and much more. The number of downloads exceeded five billion!
