Many of them chose to use Coinbase, a simple, easy-to-use application for exchanging dollars for bitcoin. Coinbase quickly climbed to the top of the free apps loaded on the App Store rankings in the US, although it leveled off on December 8.
A recent report from Sensor Tower, an application analysis company, shows the number of people downloading Coinbase on iPhones and iPads. Within a week when the price of Bitcoin increased, Coinbase had 700,000 new downloads and installations.
