Is there a market for a new banking app?
14 apps compete here. They hold 456,917,833 installs on Google Play, counted across the 12 we could match. We hold 13,773 of their App Store reviews. Those are counts, not a verdict. The page shows what is unfixed, not whether to build.
What do people search for when they want a banking app?
We scan 41 App Store storefronts. Typing Banking apps completes to “rbt mobile banking” in 34 of them. Then “ubs banking” in 14, “fnb banking app” in 12. These are Apple’s own suggestions. They show what gets typed, not how often.
What do users complain about most in banking apps?
1. Support: in 14 of 14 apps, 14.9% of reviews (12.1% in Finance apps); 2. Content: in 11 of 14 apps, 0.7% of reviews (0.5% in Finance apps). Counted from 13,773 reviews of every star on the 2026-10-05 snapshot, never estimated.
Cited: What RevenueCat measures across subscription apps
Their report has no category matching Banking apps apps, so only all-category figures are shown. A near-match would be a guess.
the median app barely grows; the tails are extreme

the launch flood vs the incumbency moat
~2,000 → 14,700+ new subscription apps per month (Jan 2022 → Jan 2026), yet pre-2020 apps still hold 69% of subscription revenue

How this is counted
We count the reviews we hold again every week. Nothing is guessed. A topic is found by the words a review uses, so the same review always lands in the same place. Every star counts. A share is the part of all reviews here that mention a topic. We compare it with the same share across 759 Finance apps, the group most of these apps are in. A topic is a gap when at least 20 reviews mention it, at least half the apps have it, and it comes up at least 1.15 times as often as usual. A problem in one app is that app’s bug. A problem in every app is nobody’s gap. This market has no full report yet, so the per-app notes are absent rather than estimated.
