Every app AppWatch has found, when it arrived, what it competes with, and whether it is still answering. The numbers move as the record does.

0 never checked
Every app ingest found, by the month it first appeared. Dates we watched happen are drawn separately from dates we reconstructed, because a reconstructed one is accurate to within weeks.
Each quarter's arrivals as a share of that quarter. The seven largest categories, and everything else in one band.
An app that is two things is counted in both, the same way the filters count it. Open a category for its own arrivals and its own search numbers.
The ones people reach most, by estimated search traffic. Open one for what it charges, what it runs on and the day it arrived.
Estimated monthly organic search visits. Search only, so it understates anything growing through an app store, a community or paid ads.
An app leaves when a run of failures and a stretch of wall-clock time both say so. A lifespan needs a start and an end we watched, so it is a smaller number than the count of apps that are gone.
Read this next to the figures above rather than instead of them.

counted as live above
both ends watched
Survival needs apps we have watched from arrival onward, and enough of them still being watched at each mark. Not enough history yet.
Everything ingest has found, incumbents included.
The other 0 show as live because that is the starting state, not because we have looked.
The rest were reconstructed and are accurate to within weeks. 47 of them.
Both ends watched. A lifespan needs a start and an end we saw, and anything short of 30 of them is not a statistic yet.
Estimated monthly organic search visits. Organic search only.
Arrivals land as ingest finds them, so the newest bucket is always partial.
