Google is the top mobile app publisher. Its apps represent nos. 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, and 16.“

http://qz.com/253527/these-are-the-25-most-popular-mobile-apps-in-america/

Netflix is the top app that requires a subscription. Its 28 million unique visitors represent more than 75% of its US streaming subscriber base, including trial members.
