I have apps for my checking and savings accounts but I rarely use them. I use the websites of the institutions.
In American, credit card use is far more common so I have apps for credit cards on my iPhone and I will check them occasionally to see if a transaction I just made shows up as pending.
But when I'm actually paying the balance, I again use web sites.
I agree that transport apps are far more essential on phones, since it will plot out your journey based on GPS. Though public transportation isn't that heavily used by Americans.
My most used apps are for podcasts, fitness tracking, blood pressure readings, health tracking. Can I work around using these apps? Yes but they provide greater convenience so I want them. These were all free so I don't think Apple got 30%.
In act a lot of the apps which people most often pay for are games. I paid for Trivia Crack, didn't pay for DuoLingo.
