Hi badgolferman,

Let's compare half the USA (iOS users) with the other half (Android), in
terms of what Apple says and what Google says are the most installed apps
(although we have to note they reported the categories differently as Apple
reported them as "most installed" while Google seems to have used "best"
and "users' choice" and other similar descriptors).

*Google Play: Best apps and games announced for 2023*
<https://mashable.com/article/google-play-top-apps-2023>

*Google Play crowns its best apps of 2023*
<https://www.zdnet.com/article/google-play-crowns-its-best-apps-of-2023-did-your-favorite-make-the-list/>

Taking the ZDNet article first, it says this is the "Best overall app"
Imprint: Learn Visually
And it says this is the "Users' choice" app reported by Google Play:
ChatGPT

That same information is reported in Mashable where in all the iPhone &
Android (& iPad & tablet) compilations, they also reported the best games
(where it might be interesting to see games iOS users like vs Android).

Neither of those are lists of which are the most popular apps on Android.

Why can't you ever play it straight?

What would be interesting would for you to compare the same metric for
both platforms
