29. ‣ July Highlights
iPad
TOP 25 Ever - iPad - Game
• Where's My Perry? reached the 3rd rank in less than 2 months after its release
(June 28th).
• CSR Racing won 11 places and reached #10. This great progression in our App

revenue.

jeudi 16 août 12
30. ‣ July Highlights
Apps Released in July
• Top 2 Paid Games for iPhone & iPad are Rovio’s Amazing Alex (iPhone, iPad) and
The Dark Knight Rises [is that a surprise?]
• It’s interesting to see that no apps released in July reached the Top 25 Ever while
Chrome, Where's My Perry?, Asphalt 7: Heat did it last month.
• SongPop Free (App Score: 94) performed very well last month but is not in the Top
25 Ever Free Game, while the paid version (App Score: 92) reached the Top 25. It
can be explained by the fact that more free apps perform well, so it’s more
difficult to reach the Top Free apps, than the Top Paid apps.
