Weekly edition · 2026-W38

What took off, 14 – 20 Sep 2026

The week on the Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Apple and Google Play stores in one page: the fastest risers and what happened alongside them, the biggest rank climbs, breakouts, launches, the biggest delistings, newly featured listings, the hottest categories and rising themes.

Risers rank on each store's honest weekly series - ratings gained on Chrome, Edge and Apple, users or installs elsewhere - above the store page's size floor, and leave out listings whose numbers do not add up. The grey line under a riser is what else happened to it in the fortnight (a featuring, a new version, a competitor leaving): alongside the rise, not offered as its cause. An edition is provisional while its week runs and frozen once it closes (Monday 00:00 UTC); weeks that ended before editions began were reconstructed from the census history, and what that history cannot support is marked unavailable.
