I almost never look at the app store but I popped in today in the wake of the TikTok ban and was shocked to see this.

      Much like Google search results, it’s altered to be more relevant to each person.

        The “top” apps shouldn’t be relevant to anyone but I guess I shouldn’t be surprised Google is just lying again.

          Can confirm these are highly personalized. I have two different lists on two different phones. One I use for work and has work apps on it, the other for personal use. Both have different top charts which seems to be based on location and installed apps.
