App intelligence
Know what your market is doing before your next release
Follow any listing in the index and see how its installs, rating and chart positions move week to week. Put your own app beside the ones you compete with, and find out whether a change moved the needle or the whole category did.

What you can answer with it
Each of these is a question a release plan usually has to guess at.
Did that update help?
Install and rating history runs daily for the recent window, so a change in the week after a release is visible rather than inferred from a monthly total.
How do we sit against the field?
Put up to four listings side by side on installs, ratings, size, pricing and chart position. The comparison lives in its URL, so it travels into a document or a thread.
Which markets are worth the effort?
Chart positions are tracked across twenty markets. A listing that ranks nowhere at home and top fifty elsewhere is a localisation decision, not an accident.
Who is coming up behind us?
The trending chart ranks by install acceleration rather than size, which is where a competitor shows up months before it appears in a top-installed list.
What does this category charge?
Every category page carries its own pricing and monetisation mix, so a free-with-purchases decision can start from what already works there.
What moved while I was away?
A watchlist keeps the listings you care about in one place and shows the change since the last snapshot, including chart movement in both directions.
What tracking looks like
A watchlist row carries the figure, the direction and the shape of the last 30 days — enough to tell a blip from a trend at a glance.

Install counts and growth are modelled from the Appcompass index. They are estimates, not figures reported by Google Play, and should be read as direction and scale rather than exact numbers.
