Popularity and difficulty are 0–100 scores, not search counts. Position is where the app appears in search results. The number next to each country is how many searches the app ranks for there (top 50).

Every country: high confidence. Figures are projected to the full 30 days, like the headline estimate.

Download figures are each storefront's own chart-based estimate, projected to the full period. The worldwide figure also includes storefronts without a chart (priced from rating activity) and storefronts we don't track, so these rows add up to less than it. Revenue is each storefront's own estimate, as on the country pages, and does not add up to the worldwide figure. Countries we don't track yet aren't listed.

“No Care For User Experience. The whole experience has gone down the drain. Complete bombardment with ads that take up half of the screen and require you to click on three different things to make them go away paired with your apparent affinity to just move stuff in the UI around for no reason other than you think it's fun (the subscriptions tab being moved is what did me in this time). It's like you really don't give even a single sliver of a damn about your users and you really aren't afraid to show it every time it matters. Every time someone brings up an issue and you guys respond it's always some stupid, detached PR dribble about sending feedback THAT YOU OBVIOUSLY IGNORE. I can't think of a single update to this app/website in the past six years that has made the experience better. Not to mention your absolutely exorbitant pricing on YouTube premium plans. I'm not paying you guys TWENTY DOLLARS A MONTH no matter how much time I spend watching, and bombarding me with ads and pop-ups encouraging me to go back just makes me despise you even more and more resolute in never doing so. I have other, much more important things to pay for, just as I assume literally everybody else in the world does. I would say to get it together, but I know damn well you don't take complaints even slightly seriously.”

“Used to be a fan,scammer vibes. I used to love youtube all it is now is an ad frenzy, power hungry villain,Ads are crazy. There is an ad every 5 minutes , non-skippable even if you pause to use the restroom, if you come back and unpause, there’s another ad. They have become greedy and unreasonable just because they want you to pay for no ads and youtube premium.”

“Enjoying. My window on the world. Just wish there was an easy way to find something I saw from a previous session. A bit lees ads like only one before a channel instead of two. The ads are getting invasive, all AI is fakery, click bait is full of shocking, unbelievable AI slop and on top of this you tube subscriptions where hit with a FORTY percent price increase which knocks having the subscriptions out out box. Pure greed.”

Where these numbers come from
App details: Apple iTunes Search API, updated Oct 28, 2026, 2:42 PM UTC.
Rankings: App Store chart positions we collect several times a day. A missing rank doesn't mean zero.
Downloads and revenue: AppTrendKit estimates, not official Apple or developer numbers. Revenue is what users spend, before Apple's commission.
Model: public-signal-ensemble-v6. Ranges get wider when we have less data.
Confidence: High · generated Nov 3, 2026, 2:29 AM UTC · window Oct 4, 2026 – Nov 2, 2026.
Country figures are each storefront's own chart-based estimate and never show more confidence than the worldwide figure. Worldwide downloads can be higher than their sum: they also count storefronts where the app doesn't chart (priced from rating activity) and storefronts we don't track.
