Audible – ~550,000
Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000
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:
The Simple Rule That Seems To Govern How Life Is Organized On Earth - IFLScience
NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900
📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
Literie – ~19,000
150-Million-Year-Old Stegosaurus Skull Rewrites Dinosaur Evolution - SciTechDaily
Just checked this recently using Asolytics — some categories have surprisingly low entry thresholds in certain markets.
📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)
Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000
Italy citizenship referendum polarises country - BBC
GoodNovel – Booktok, Stories – ~38,000
