What changed on the App Store (Top Free) since yesterday
Compared with the August 6, 2026 App Store Top Free daily post, coupon shopping cools hard while rewards apps and resale climb inside the published 15.
New entrants: Freecash - Get Paid Real Money at rank 14 (was rank 16 on August 6, outside the published cut).
Big movers: DealSeek from rank 5 to rank 24 (19 places); Threads 9 to 6; Depop 10 to 7; X 7 to 11; Vinted 6 to 5; Google 11 to 9; WhatsApp 12 to 10; Claude 13 to 12; Gmail 14 to 13.

What the App Store free chart shows on August 7
Events and school messaging still define the August 7, 2026 podium: TikTok Pro Events, ChatGPT, and ParentSquare lock ranks 1 through 3 exactly as on August 6. The clearest churn signal is DealSeek's fall from rank 5 to rank 24, reversing the coupon app's August 6 debut inside the published cut in a single day.
Freecash returning at rank 14 after exiting to rank 16 on August 6 shows rewards demand can bounce without a widely reported product launch. Threads climbing to rank 6 while X slips to rank 11 reshapes the mid-chart social pair. Across 50 API rows, treat DealSeek's 19-place drop, Freecash's re-entry at rank 14, and the frozen top 4 as the August 7 uniqueness markers.
