Audible – ~550,000
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:
Are you afraid to get married and why?
📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)
GoodNovel – Booktok, Stories – ~38,000
Does the color purple really exist? - Live Science
Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000
Literie – ~19,000
Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000
‘How To Train Your Dragon’ Flying In With $200M+ Worldwide Bow – International Box Office - Deadline
NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900
