Top risers
Trending: the fastest growth this week, as a percentage of users, installs or ratings - so smaller listings taking off lead, not the giants.

Top risers are ranked by this week's growth as a percentage: in ratings on Chrome, Edge and Apple, installs on Android and daily users on Firefox. A riser grew at least 5%, from a real size, and listings whose numbers don't add up are left out. The grey line under a riser is something else that happened to it in the last two weeks, like a new version or a competitor leaving - not necessarily the reason it rose. This week's edition updates after every crawl and closes on Monday (00:00 UTC). Weeks before editions began were pieced together from our history, so some sections are missing for them.
