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:
Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000
Can Djokovic climb the mountain? - Roland Garros
Audible – ~550,000
Literie – ~19,000
NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900
NHL Draft: Flyers take strong winger Porter Martone at sixth overall - PhillyVoice
📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)
Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000
Sex advice: I'm finally ready to enter my promiscuity era. But there's a catch. - Slate Magazine
GoodNovel – Booktok, Stories – ~38,000
