Rules

Only a few of them, and zero are hidden.

1. 1

   One dollar and you're on the board.

   Search an app by name or drop its App Store link, pay at least $1, and it's up. Whole dollars only — cents don't count.

2. 2

   Bids stack.

   Every bid on an app adds to its running total. Ten $1 bids and one $10 bid hit exactly the same.

3. 3

   Biggest bag sits at #1.

   That's the whole ranking. No engagement score, no freshness decay, no algorithm doing you dirty.

4. 4

   Ties go to whoever pulled up first.

   Matching a total won't move you past anyone. You've gotta beat it.

5. 5

   Anyone can bid on any app.

   You don't have to own it. Want an app higher? Outbid whoever's above it.

6. 6

   Search a name, or drop a link.

   Type a name and you pick from the App Store results. An apps.apple.com link or a bare app ID takes you straight there. Apple Music, Podcasts, Books and TV links are a no, and apple.co short links are too.

7. 7

   Names and icons come straight from Apple.

   We pull the listing for you, so what's on the board is what's on the App Store. No edits, no filter.

8. 8

   The board holds the top 200.

   It refreshes every 30 seconds, so a fresh bid shows up in like half a minute.
