How many downloads does an iOS app need to get into the top charts in education?
Last Updated: 28.06.2025 00:01
Just checked this recently using Asolytics — some categories have surprisingly low entry thresholds in certain markets.
NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900
Audible – ~550,000
📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)
Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000
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:
For the Best Fat-Burning Exercises, Slow and Sustainable Wins the Abs Race - GQ
GoodNovel – Booktok, Stories – ~38,000
📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000
From Delta to Starship, SpaceX’s ambitious plan for SLC-37’s future - NASASpaceFlight.com -
Literie – ~19,000
