Episode 1: 5 Apps Rising This Week: Wishlists and Coupons Get Ready for Black Friday
GoWish, Giftful, Koupon, DealSeek and Fetch all climbed the US iPhone free chart this week. What it shows about seasonal demand, and the one step to take for your own app.
Five apps climbed the US iPhone free chart between November 2 and November 9, 2026, and all five help people buy gifts or pay less for them.
- GoWish: #8 to #5, about 11,100 new US ratings in a week
- Giftful: outside the top 100 to #54
- Koupon: outside the top 100 to #44
- DealSeek: #65 to #47, only 17 months old
- Fetch: outside the top 100 to #69
The lesson: seasonal demand shows up before the season. Find your app's season, count back four to six weeks, and ship your new icon, screenshots and update then.
