What is actually growing on Google Play

62 Android apps picking up installs right now, ranked by how many they added recently. A crowded chart position tells you demand exists; the note on each row is our read on whether it is worth building against.

What "momentum" means here. The percentage is how much of an app's lifetime installs landed in the recent window — a high number means the app is growing now, not that it is big. Install counts come from public Play Store ranking data and are rounded by Google itself. A rising app is evidence of demand, not of revenue: none of these figures say anything about what the app earns. Snapshot taken 30 July 2026.
