Get told when Substack moves
Chart position changes, entries, and exits. App Store Connect doesn't report any of this.
We'll send one email to confirm it's you, then one showing where this app stands today. After that: at most one a day, only when something moved, one-click unsubscribe on every one — and there's no list to sell you to.

How hard is News?
Apps in this category's top 20 carry a median of 526.7K ratings, and the smallest one charting has 6K. That makes it the 11th easiest of 22 categories to reach a chart in.
Rating count stands in for install base here. It favours older apps and varies by how hard a category prompts for reviews, so it's used only to order categories against each other — never as a number of installs.
