AI Revenue EstimateCONFIDENCE: MEDIUM
The direct revenue of the iOS app "Messenger" from in-app purchases is estimated to be very low, consistently reported by Sensor Tower as less than $5,000 per month. For instance, in Q1 2023, Sensor Tower reported Messenger's weekly revenue in the US iOS market saw a small peak at $60. The primary monetization for Messenger comes from advertising, which is part of Meta Platforms, Inc.'s broader 'Family of Apps' revenue and is not reflected as direct app store revenue.

This app is currently outside the top 100 grossing in all 9 countries we monitor (US, UK, DE, FR, JP, CA, AU, BR, IN). Niche or new apps often launch this way — popularity rankings appear once daily revenue clears the regional threshold.
