In 2023, 36% of top apps on the App Store updated their icons. In 2024? Just 30%.

That’s a -6% drop. But the bigger story? Most apps still aren’t A/B testing their icons at all.

The first thing users see — your icon — is getting overlooked, even as competition intensifies.

📉 Fewer icon updates = less testing = missed conversion wins.
