Apps like Words with Friends and Houseparty saw a huge resurgence in March — here's the full list of apps users are downloading while stuck at home

With people forced to work, learn, and socialize from home, apps like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Houseparty have seen spikes in downloads as they become essential to daily life.

According to SensorTower's analytics, some of these apps have had downloads increase by more than 1,000% between February and March when most US shelter in place orders were first issued. Based on SensorTower's findings, people seem to be downloading tools for remote work and school, social apps for keeping in touch with friends, and simple mobile games. Instacart's inclusion also makes sense as fears of COVID-19 stop people from venturing out to the grocery store. Phone game Slap Kings increased 140%.
