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

Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000

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:

183-million-year-old fossil gives incredible new insights into plesiosaurs from well-preserved skin - Earth.com

Literie – ~19,000

Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000

Audible – ~550,000

Procter & Gamble to Cut 7,000 Jobs - WSJ

GoodNovel – Booktok, Stories – ~38,000

📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)

📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
