The app has grown from 2.5 million downloads at the start of the week to over 3.4 million downloads, with daily active users climbing 27% after the conference. Muse's growth rate significantly outpaces competitors like ChatGPT in their early mobile launches, and the app currently ranks at the top of both the U.S. App Store and Google Play Store. Meta is supporting this growth through cross-platform promotion on its existing social apps, advertising on mobile networks and other platforms, and announced upcoming features including video chat with an avatar, computer use support, and smart glasses integration.
