If you’re a New Yorker, you’ll definitely recognize the apps on this list. And, chances are, you’ll have most of them on your phone.

Without further ado, here are a few of the most popular apps in New York City:

Seamless

Seamless is a food delivery app that every New Yorker is sure to have. It’s a super simple way to order delivery right from your phone, straight to your door! The platform is intuitive, visually pleasing, and well…seamless! With hundreds of restaurant options, Seamless offers just about every kind of cuisine you could possibly want.

Citizen

The Citizen app “is a personal safety network that empowers you to protect yourself and the people and places you care about” (Citizen). Essentially, Citizen sends you personalized local safety alerts (about incidents like robberies, fires, etc.) in real time – so you can stay safe! It’s an incredibly helpful app, and one of the most commonly used in NYC.

Citymapper

Citymapper is a public transit app that will help you safely and efficiently move from one location to another. With many accolades, including Apple’s Apps of the Year 2013-2017, Citymapper is a must-have.

Grooop

Grooop is the app to keep you safe at all times. With the ability to share your location with your friends and family at all times, you can safely meet up with new people without your friends having to worry. Now you never have to feel unsafe running errands alone again!

Citi bike

Don’t have access to a car? Not a problem! Citi bike is an app that lets you locate bikes to ride so you can get to where you need to be faster.

Uber

Uber is THE app to get you where you need to be safer and faster. Whether it’s coming home from the grocery store, or from the bar, you can enjoy your ride to your front door comfortably and safely.

Have you been thinking about developing a mobile app?

Here at Pioneer Applications (a top New York City app development company), we think a lot about developing mobile apps too. And, we know how much of a careful deliberation it can be. Yet, we also know how profitable, rewarding, and valuable mobile applications are for both business owners and individuals.

So, here’s the push you need to go ahead and get started.

Reason One: Now’s the PERFECT time to get started.

Let’s face it: Phones, technology, and mobile apps are becoming a major part of how we exist. The reality is that consumers are downloading apps at extremely high rates. In fact, in 2019, there were over 204 billion mobile app downloads! This number has been steadily growing, and is predicted to continue growing.

Reason Two: You can seriously increase your revenue.

Between paid downloads and in-app advertisements, apps have the potential to be HIGHLY profitable. In 2023, mobile apps are projected to generate more than 935 billion U.S. dollars. Needless to say, that’s a LOT of money ready to be earned.

Reason Three: Mobile Apps are Co-Vid Proof.

As we’ve seen throughout this global pandemic, a lot of industries are beginning to crumble. The mobile app industry is not one of those industries. Despite our economy being severely shaken, mobile apps continue to be used and created with great success. This success includes app development in New York! The future of business must be Co-Vid proof, and mobile apps already are!

Reason Four: Mobile apps are an especially effective way to reach millennials.

Listen to this: 76 percent of millennials say their phone is useless without mobile apps.

Useless! 76 percent!!

Additionally, 74 percent of millennials open an app when bored.

If you’re trying to reach millennials, developing an app is absolutely essential.

Reason Five: Apps are an opportunity to provide additional value to your customers.

If you’re running a business, consider developing an app with your customer in mind. What would be useful for them? If you create something that’s user-friendly, convenient, and genuinely helpful, you have an opportunity to build positive customer relationships.

Apps help businesses grow all the time; read about one example here!
