What today's App Store Free trends reveal
The September 28 free ten still opens with AI and resale (Muse, Momo, ChatGPT, Vinted) then fills ranks 5 through 7 with cash-for-tasks and prediction apps. Freecash and PLAYFUL REWARDS arriving together is the rotation versus September 27's drama-app cluster. StoryReel's 5-rank drop and the Depop/TikTok Pro exits show the lower half is still swapping, while ranks 1 through 4 did not move.
