GoKawiilMeta's Muse AI app hits No. 2 on US App Store after two-day launch
Meta's new agentic AI app Muse has been downloaded over 83,000 times on iOS in the US since its Tuesday launch, pushing it to the No. 2 spot on Apple's App Store charts, according to Sensor Tower data. That pace trails Meta's own past launches like Threads and the Meta AI app, as well as ChatGPT's debut week, and Muse is performing far weaker on Android, ranking only 338th in Google Play's Productivity category.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Muse's reception is an early signal of whether Meta can convert its heavy AI investment into consumer adoption at a moment when it's racing against OpenAI and others for mainstream mindshare. A slower climb than Threads or ChatGPT doesn't spell failure, but it does suggest agentic AI apps face a tougher sell than social apps or chatbots, at least out of the gate.
- Muse reached No. 2 on the US iOS App Store with over 83,000 downloads since launch.
- Its download pace trails Meta's previous launches (Threads, Meta AI) and ChatGPT's debut week.
- Muse is underperforming on Android, ranking 338th in Google Play's Productivity category.
