Marketplace apps are now ranked using a new weighted formula that takes into account:
- Rating quality (average score)
- Rating quantity (number of reviews)
- The overall average rating of all apps (as a baseline)
This formula determines the order in which apps appear in the marketplace. Previously, the ranking algorithm only considered the average rating, which didn’t fully reflect an app's quality or usage. The updated formula delivers:
- Fairer rankings for high-performing apps
- Increased user trust in rating-based sorting
- Incentive for developers to collect more feedback
- Alignment with industry standards for app marketplaces
