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.
GoodNovel – Booktok, Stories – ~38,000
NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900
Neuroscientists find individual differences in memory response to amygdala stimulation - PsyPost
Audible – ~550,000
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:
Literie – ~19,000
NASA's Voyager Found a 30k-50k Kelvin "Wall" at the Edge of Solar System - Hacker News
Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000
📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)
Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000
As a woman, what would be you response to a male friend’s offer of a full body massage?
📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
