Top 6 app behind X (still can't get used to that stupid name) and before Facebook lite... not bad
It's currently #10 in the Google Play store, under the "social" category. (First is TikTok.)![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/c8ce25f2-c8f3-466a-9d15-b3346b68ae4d.jpeg)
Depends on your region. I'm in Canada and it's 6th here.
In my part of Canada, it's ranked 8th. I might install if I after it's more fleshed out, but I'm mainly waiting/hoping for boost to release.
The odd thing is, their screenshot is on the play store as well, you can see the logo next to installed apps. However, when I check on my phone, it matches yours.
Like @skye pointed out, I suspect it might indeed be based on region. I remember another thread where a user reported seeing Sync rated at 3 stars, whereas others reported 5 stars.
Ratings on play store are indeed localized (by region) but also by device type so it ensure that the ratings is relevant to your device (as the app experience can be extremely different on different devices running different Android version and/or Roms)
It also shows only ratings from the last of few last released versions in order to no skew the results with old versions of the app
Might be region dependent?
It doesn't even show up in that list for me. Reddit shows up after top 50. I guess the list is made based on your geographic location as well.
