NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900
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:
Apple drops a spot on 2025 Fortune 500 list - 9to5Mac
Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000
Literie – ~19,000
Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000
📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)
Audible – ~550,000
