According to news in the morning of November 8, Beijing time, although Twitter has been in chaos recently, third-party statistics show that Twitter users do not seem to mind the new style of the new boss Elon Musk. Downloads and usage of the platform have increased.

After Musk mastered the Twitter platform, the average daily downloads of Twitter clients have risen sharply in recent days, according to Apptopia, a mobile Internet market research company. The average number of daily downloads in November increased 28% compared with the previous month, and the number of downloads increased by 46% compared with September this year.

According to the data, the Twitter client was downloaded 637,000 times by users on November 3, the highest number of daily downloads since May and about double the daily downloads in June.

It is worth mentioning that on the evening of November 3, Musk began to lay off Twitter on a large scale, and thousands of employees lost their jobs.

On November 6th, according to Apptopia statistics, the Twitter client was downloaded 555,000 times a day. On that day, the daily active users of Twitter also set a record, with 245.4 million people around the world using the Twitter app.

The previous record for daily active users was 243.3 million, which occurred on June 8 this year.

Musk has clearly noticed the growth in the number of Twitter users, and he recently tweeted that the number of Twitter users around the world has grown significantly since the announcement of his deal for Twitter.

In a separate tweet, Musk explained that the reason for the adjustment to the member product "Twitter Blue V" (in the future, users can pay a fee to buy this additional service and authenticate their accounts). The aim is to encourage users to interact and communicate more on Twitter.

How many of Twitter's newly attracted users can stay online for a long time and become permanent users? This is still an unknown quantity. However, Adam Blacker, director of content at Apptopia, the research firm, speculated that many newcomers had recently downloaded the Twitter client, and they might want to see what would happen to Twitter under the new boss, Musk.

The last time there was a big increase in usage of the Twitter platform was in April this year. At the time, Musk and Twitter jointly announced a $44 billion acquisition. Surprisingly, Musk backed out and wanted to withdraw from the deal, which eventually led to a legal battle between Twitter and Musk, and Musk decided to buy Twitter at the original price.

Blake added that many active users of Twitter, including those who recently downloaded clients, rarely post on Twitter and are just "scuba diving", that is, reading tweets from others and giving likes.

On November 3, Apptopia conducted a sample survey of consumers' comments on Twitter clients in software stores and found that many users mentioned the name "Musk" in their comments. For example, one comment said, "Thank Musk for taking control of Twitter." Another comment was "Twitter has been much better since Musk was in charge."

Recently, the Twitter client has not upgraded its usage features, but many users have made positive comments on the app store because of the new owner, Musk.

According to Apptopia, it is not clear how many people have left the Twitter platform, and the company does not monitor the number of daily unloads of Twitter clients. However, the relevant information shows that the average daily active users of Twitter fell slightly in June, and have not declined since.
