JioSaavn tops 500 million Google play store downloads
MUMBAI: JioSaavn has crossed 500 million downloads on the Google Play Store, marking one of the most significant milestones in the company’s growth journey. The achievement underscores JioSaavn’s position as one of India’s most widely used music streaming platforms, reflecting both its expanding listener base and the increasing resonance of its product across diverse audiences.
With this feat, JioSaavn becomes the only Indian music streaming app to reach 500 million unique Google Play installs. The milestone follows the recent achievement of JioHotstar, which crossed one billion downloads to become India’s most downloaded entertainment app. JioSaavn now ranks second in India’s entertainment category, highlighting the growing dominance and reach of Jio’s digital ecosystem across content verticals.
The platform attributes this milestone to a year defined by continuous product innovation, a strong focus on user experience, and a wave of high-impact feature launches that boosted engagement nationwide. Over the past year, JioSaavn strengthened its personalised recommendations engine, enhanced multilingual search capabilities, and introduced a redesigned home feed that resonated with both long-time listeners and new users. Features such as “Daily Mixes,” offering freshly auto-curated listening every day, and “From the Community,” showcasing playlists created by users across the country, played a pivotal role in deepening engagement and expanding discovery. Together, these updates have delivered a more intuitive, seamless and satisfying listening experience.
JioSaavn’s growth was further supported by strategic marketing rollouts and aggressive subscription offerings aimed at making premium audio content more accessible. New JioSaavn Pro plans, including high-quality listening at prices as low as Rs 9 for two months and Rs 399 for an annual subscription, received a strong consumer response and significantly contributed to record user engagement. These initiatives helped sustain download momentum heading into the final quarter of the year.
With the 500 million milestone now crossed, JioSaavn enters its next phase of growth with renewed focus. The platform reiterated its commitment to enhancing user experience through continuous innovation, strategic partnerships and deeper audience engagement. Building on this achievement, JioSaavn aims to further elevate its product and widen its reach across the country.
