📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)
Just checked this recently using Asolytics — some categories have surprisingly low entry thresholds in certain markets.
It really depends on the country and category - numbers vary a lot. For example, in the Books category, here’s how the top chart apps rank by monthly installs in each country:
Gut Microbiota Transplants May Cause Long-Term Imbalance - Neuroscience News
Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000
Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000
Audible – ~550,000
Mario Kart World Guide - All Courses, Cups, Missions, Collectibles, Tips & Tricks - Nintendo Life
NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900
Literie – ~19,000
📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
Nicolas Jackson helps Senegal to 3-1 victory over England - We Ain't Got No History
GoodNovel – Booktok, Stories – ~38,000
