READ THE NUMBERS CORRECTLY

One month.
A clear method.

Source: supplied August 2026 worldwide app-market exports, with 500 rows per store and metric. We matched official apps by App Store ID or Google Play package, then selected established AI assistants and AI-assisted creative tools.

Order: highest estimated monthly downloads first, within the selected category and store. App stores are kept separate. No revenue, web traffic, active users, votes or paid-placement weighting enter the calculation.

Limits: the exports do not identify the estimate provider or estimation method. These figures are not audited developer analytics or a complete ranking of every AI app. Missing entries stay unranked. Product names and facts were checked against official pages on September 9, 2026.
