Retention-weighted ranking
A retention-weighted ranking orders apps partly by whether people keep using them after trying them, not only by how many try them. OpenAI has said the directory order has weighed retention since Aug 21, 2026. OpenApps sees the order that results, not the retention behind it.

What we can see is the result. Popular's top 9 is the same in all 7 countries with Popular data, and none of its positions changed in the 24 hours to October 13, 2026. Retention numbers aren't published, and we don't estimate them.
A rank is an order. It doesn't tell you how many people use or keep an app.
