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:
NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900
Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000
Just checked this recently using Asolytics — some categories have surprisingly low entry thresholds in certain markets.
📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)
Literie – ~19,000
'Endling' is a shape-shifting debut that takes on heavy themes with humor - NPR
📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
GoodNovel – Booktok, Stories – ~38,000
Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000
Top Federal Reserve official promises major overhaul of US bank regulation - Financial Times
Audible – ~550,000
