Views gained is each series' view counter on Sunday Sep 20, 2026 minus the same counter on Sunday Sep 13, 2026, from our own snapshots of the apps' public pages (a day earlier where a scrape missed the Sunday). A title needs a snapshot at both ends of the week to be ranked. View counters come from each app and are not audited by us.
