The Russian messaging app Max has surged to the top of the free apps ranking in Russia’s App Store, overtaking popular services like Telegram and WhatsApp.

The app has not only claimed the lead among free social networking platforms but also secured the number one spot among all free iOS applications in the country. Simultaneously, Max has entered the top three most popular apps on Google Play in Russia, signaling its rapid rise in the competitive messaging market.

The surge in interest is largely attributed to the anticipated introduction of a “channels” feature, which has drawn the attention of bloggers eager to establish a presence on the relatively untapped platform.

Currently, over 50 bloggers, media outlets, and public figures are participating in the testing phase of this feature, hinting at its potential to reshape content distribution within the app.
