Top 10 mobile applications that Millennials love

If you’re embarking on an app development project, you’re probably curious about ‘what applications do Millennials use?’

Maintaining interest and involvement from the Millennials will be vital to your app's long-term success. While earlier generations such as the Baby Boomers and Generation X, as well as the young Gen Z populations, are still significant forces to be dealt with, Millennials are now the largest working-age generation.

Who are Millennials exactly?

Wikipedia says that “Millennials, also known as Generation Y or Gen Y, are the demographic cohort following Generation X and preceding Generation Z. Researchers and popular media use the early 1980s as starting birth years and the mid-1990s to early 2000s as ending birth years, with the generation typically being defined as people born from 1981 to 1996. Most Millennials are the children of baby boomers and early Gen Xers; Millennials are often the parents of Generation Alpha”.

To break down Wikipedia’s definition into a more contemporary manner, Millennials are those born between 1981 and 1996, making them between 26–41 by now. You probably didn’t expect a Millennial to be nearly 40 years old!

Millennials are still the most engaging social-media generation since they are the first generation to use social media. They are the generation that grew up during a period of fast technological progress, particularly in the areas of the Internet and phones.
