Sora tops the list of free apps on the App Store
OpenAI released a standalone iOS app for its AI video-generation tool Sora on Tuesday, and it has already topped the App Store's free app list in just a few days.
In addition to creating videos, the app also allows you to immediately publish them to your feed to share with other users. One limitation is that the app is currently available by invitation only, and even then it has won the top spot in the App Store.
This brings OpenAI's total of two apps to the top three most popular free apps on the App Store. The other, of course, is the chatbot ChatGPT, which comes in third place. They are separated by another AI app, Gemini from Google, which comes in second place.
Recall that shortly after the release of Sora for iOS, users noticed that deleting an account also deletes the ChatGPT account and all communication history with the chatbot.
