About Apple Podcasts Charts

Apple Podcasts Charts are the Top Shows and Top Episodes rankings that Apple Inc. publishes in Apple Podcasts, overall and by category (for example Business > Entrepreneurship), for each country and region. They trace back to the podcast directory Apple added to iTunes 4.9 on 28 June 2005, which launched with more than 3,000 free podcasts. The standalone Podcasts app followed with iOS 6 in 2012.

Why this ranking matters

Apple Podcasts remains one of the largest podcast platforms, and its charts are the most widely recognised public ranking in podcasting. A chart position is a direct, platform-native signal of current listening.
