Downloads to Top

How many downloads does my app need to rank in the top 3 in its category? Which country should I choose to next launch my app? Which country is the most competitive?

Answer all these questions and more with our Downloads to Top feature! For the category selected, find out how many downloads you need to reach top rankings in the selected countries.


Example: You'd need more downloads to reach the top 3 rankings in the Business category in India than in the United States (Google Play).

Show Variability

These are daily estimates and depend on the volatility of a category. For example, in some categories, the level of downloads to reach a position is much higher during the weekend than during the week (ex: Photo & Video, Games etc). You can see this variability by checking the “Show variability” box at the top.

Since its creation, AppTweak has gathered the data of millions of apps across different categories and countries. This data has enabled us to compute a model that estimates the downloads and revenues of an app based on its category ranking.
