I presume Google has some super-secret algorithm for determining this, which apparently is tweaked or changed every once in a while based on some posts I've seen on here about people's app ranking changing drastically at various times. In general though, the higher the active install count you have the higher up on the list you'll be. I'm sure there are other factors taking into account as well (like ratings, one would hope). Also note that this varies across platform versions - my app, at least, is ranked differently on a G1 with 1.6 than it is on an N1 with 2.1. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TreKing - Chicago transit tracking app for Android-powered devices http://sites.google.com/site/rezmobileapps/treking -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
