73 of 122 apps holding a top-10 position have rating readings spanning 14+ days.
Google Play rating counts are worldwide, so these Google Play US figures are not country-specific. App Store counts are kept per country. Compare apps within one store, never across the two. A rate is the rise in rating count over the days observed in the last 30 days; a drop of more than half is read as a counter reset and earlier readings are discarded.

COMPLAINTS
Most common: Inaccurate data, 118 of 334 classified 1–2★ reviews.
Google ranks these by how many people found them helpful, which leans towards complaints — so the shares show which problems dominate, not how many users hit them.
Each 1–2★ complaint was assigned one theme by an AI model. A second AI model re-read 100 random labels in September 2026: about 7 in 10 matched its own pick and 9 in 10 were a reasonable reading. Read the order of the leading themes, not exact shares. Classified on 2026-09-16.
