PANews reported on August 8 that Elon Musk said on the X platform that the X app ranked first in the news category of the App Store, becoming the highest-ranked news app in the free and "grossing" categories in the United States. Currently, the X app ranks first in the news category in many countries and regions around the world.

It is understood that the "grossing" category refers to the total revenue ranking of the application. This ranking is based on the total revenue earned by the application through in-app purchases and paid downloads, and does not include advertising revenue. Even if an application has fewer downloads, it may rank high in the "grossing" ranking if its revenue is high.
