How many downloads does an iOS app need to get into the top charts in education?

Just checked this recently using Asolytics — some categories have surprisingly low entry thresholds in certain markets.
Audible – ~550,000
Audible: Audio Entertainment – ~56,000
Something Really Strange Happens When I Orgasm. Make It Stop. - Slate Magazine
Literie – ~19,000
NovelaGo: Stories and Novels – ~3,900
📍 United States (monthly installs in the US)
5 ways Diabetes impacts the eyes - Times of India
GoodNovel – Booktok, Stories – ~38,000
📍 Germany (monthly installs in Germany)
It really depends on the country and category - numbers vary a lot. For example, in the Books category, here’s how the top chart apps rank by monthly installs in each country:
Darwin Loved Worms. They May Have Just Proved Him Wrong About Evolution. - Yahoo
Galatea: Books & Audiobooks – ~17,000
