eTrading app downloads 2021

Based on monthly downloads, Robinhood is by far the most popular eTrading app in the world. Downloads of the app spiked in early 2021, amounting over three million downloads per month in January, February, April and May of 2021. For comparison, none of the other apps considered here recorded over one million downloads in any month from 2017 to 2021. The timing of this spike in popularity is likely influenced by the media attention paid to retail investors, generally using eTrading apps, coordinating their activity via social media to drive up the stock price of companies such as GameStop and AMC Entertainment.
