How many downloads does an iOS app need to get into the top charts in education?

Just checked this recently using Asolytics — some categories have surprisingly low entry thresholds in certain markets.

Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000

Audible – ~550,000

Quantum Time-Freeze: Lasers Lock Quantum States 1,000x Longer - SciTechDaily

GoodNovel – Booktok, Stories – ~38,000

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:

Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000

Roman Anthony joining Red Sox on Monday; No. 1 prospect gets call to majors - MassLive

Literie – ~19,000

NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900

📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)

Why climbing the stairs can be good for your body and brain - BBC

📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
