FanCode Soars to Global Fame: Ranked 9th in Sports Entertainment App Downloads!

FanCode has emerged as India’s top sports entertainment app, holding the ninth spot globally in downloads, as reported by Sensor Tower’s State of Mobile 2025. This report evaluates app downloads from both the Play Store and iOS, showcasing FanCode’s impressive performance within the digital sports scene.

In 2024, FanCode was the third most downloaded sports app in India. It also stands out as the number one app in the Asia-Pacific region for in-app purchase growth, and it ranks eighth for monthly active users.

Cofounder Yannick Colaco shared insights about their journey: “When we launched FanCode five years ago, our goal was to connect fans to the best of sports in India and around the world. The response has been amazing. Fans from cricket to football have truly embraced what we offer.”

FanCode has become a key part of many fans’ lives. However, Colaco believes there’s still much to achieve. “There’s a huge opportunity to make an impact in the sports ecosystem. We are committed to innovating and enhancing sports fandom in India and beyond.”

Fellow cofounder Prasana Krishnan also praised the achievement, stating, “Being recognized as India’s leading sports app and among the top worldwide reflects the passion of our users and the hard work of our team. We’ve come a long way in five years, but there’s a lot more on the horizon.”

FanCode’s success stems from its wide coverage of over 12 sports and advanced features like live streaming. The app has secured exclusive partnerships with major sporting organizations such as Formula 1, ICC, and the PGA Tour. This strategic positioning allows it to compete effectively with global brands.

In addition, FanCode is available through platforms like Amazon Prime Video Channels, Tata Play, and Jio TV, making it easily accessible to users. Since its inception in 2019, FanCode has attracted over 160 million users and continues to enhance its offerings with personalized content, merchandise, and innovative subscription models. Its parent company, Dream Sports, also owns Dream11 and DreamSetGo, marking a significant presence in the sports industry.
