What today's App Store apps reveal
The free board is an AI-and-shorts stack: Muse, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude occupy four of ten slots, while Momo, Shots, and CapCut cover generative video and StoryReel plus PineDrama cover vertical drama. Vinted is the lone resale hold after Depop left.
Claude entering at 10 as Muse stays 1 is the cleanest day-over-day story. Sensor Tower's 2.5 million versus 400,000 download split still explains why Muse leads installs even when Claude is the quality brand. The App Store Top Free API is the matching data-source page.
