Views gained is each series' view counter on Sunday Oct 25, 2026 minus the same counter on Sunday Oct 18, 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.
