How many sales do top 10 apps get?

dashnevada · April 2011

Hey guys

I was just wondering if by any chance some of us get to the top 10 spot (in the iphone/ipad appstore not mac store).

how many sales you think those guys are getting by the day? for instance how many sales you think tiny wings is having?

I think this info will inspire some of us

regards

I also read a few weeks ago, that the number 1 app gets almost double the sales of the number 2 app!

figures. angry birds is number one. lol. I think they are a sell out now because of rio. I mean, they probably got paid big, but still. Doodle jump did the same BUT the game was free.

I saw on an interview that doodle jump sold 200,000 on Christmas day. Imagine that..

Rovio reckon Rio did 10 million in 10 days. Although that might be spread across mac, ipad and iphone?

When Cut the rope came out it did 1 million in ten days.

In all the interviews I've read the devs say the app charts are massivly top heavy - more so than other charts. (And the difference between number 1 and 10 in consoles can be a factor of ten!)

I like reading sales stats, here's a few a saved. You can use app annie to see how the sales correlated to chart positions.

My friend got his app in top 25 paid (was top 10 overall at one stage) and got 25000 sales over a week or so. Pretty good and it was priced at 99 cents. I don't think he would appreciate me telling you what game I am talking about hehe.

Games like angry birds make more from ad revenue then from app sales.
