📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
Just checked this recently using Asolytics — some categories have surprisingly low entry thresholds in certain markets.
NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900
Silicon Valley's not crying for Musk - Axios
Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000
📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)
Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000
Crunch time—we’ll soon find out if Amazon’s launch providers are up to the job - Ars Technica
Literie – ~19,000
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:
GoodNovel – Booktok, Stories – ~38,000
Nintendo Warns Switch 2 Owners Not to Remove Protective Screen Film - CNET
Audible – ~550,000
