After OpenAI’s video-generating app Sora surged to the No. 1 position on the U.S. App Store, it has now, technically, experienced a bigger first week than ChatGPT on iOS, according to new data from app intelligence provider Appfigures.

This will ensure better app compatibility and a smoother user experience overall. The rest of the features and hardware will likely remain…
