Banned in India, PUBG Mobile, TikTok in most downloaded apps list
According to data released by the analysis company Sensor Tower in its latest report, the popular video sharing service TikTok and the Battle Royale game PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (or PUBG Mobile) were respectively the world’s highest-paid apps and games in the third quarter of 2021.
Application spending has increased year by year, and the revenue collected by these applications has increased in the third quarter. It is worth noting that TikTok and PUBG Mobile are still banned in the country, and some other applications were removed from the country’s Play Store and Apple App Store last year due to security issues.
According to Sensor Tower’s report tracking application spending in the third quarter, TikTok increased 41% year-on-year this quarter, while PUBG Mobile increased 11% year-on-year. However, the expenditures for paid apps, subscriptions and in-app purchases don’t stop there. Spending on Google Play Store and Apple App Store increased by more than 15% year-on-year, reaching $33.6 billion.
According to the report, spending on the App Store (13.2%) and Play Store (18.6%) has increased, even though iOS spending is 21.5 billion U.S. dollars, while Android spending is 12.1 billion U.S. dollars. Although TikTok is the highest revenue application in total revenue and the App Store, the highest revenue application in the Play Store in the third quarter of 2021 is the Google One application. The top 10 apps by total revenue include Piccoma Comic Reader, YouTube, Google One, Disney+, Tinder, Tencent Video, iQiyi, Line Manga, and HBO Max. However, TikTok was still the most downloaded app in the third quarter, beating apps such as Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger.

Tom Holland to star alongside Matt Damon in Christopher Nolan’s next, will juggle that with Spider-Man 4 in 2025
Tom Holland, last seen in Apple TV show The Crowded Room last year, has signed his next with Academy Award-winning filmmaker Christopher Nolan.

Tom signs Nolan’s next
This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.
Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).
Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.
Tom’s busy schedule
Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.
As Tom’s girlfriend and co-star Zendaya will be busy filming Spider-Man 4 in 2025, she’ll reprise her role of Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi spectacle Dune 3 only in 2026. Meanwhile, Tom is also likely to make an appearance as Spider-Man in Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday, which will go on floors in the spring of 2025.
