What the App Store paid chart shows on August 4

Utility fixtures still define the August 4, 2026 board: Shadowrocket, HotSchedules, AnkiMobile, and Procreate Pocket hold ranks 1 through 4 exactly as on August 3. The clearest churn signals are MilGPS entering at rank 12 and Antizuck exiting to rank 16, plus Monash FODMAP Diet's six-place climb to rank 8.

RadarScope sliding from rank 8 to rank 15 shows weather-radar paid demand can cool even while Spokane fire stories continue on Google News (about 700 structures and roughly 65,000 evacuations per Seattle Times coverage dated August 3 to 4, 2026). Across 50 API rows, treat the frozen top 4 plus Monash and RadarScope as the day's uniqueness markers rather than a full paid-chart reset.
