Like the title says, this changes how installs and favorites are displayed in the tooltip, as per this thread. It now looks something like this.

46 reported installs (1% of all Bangle.js users)
40 favorites (87% of installs)

Great - just to be sure - you did manage to test this on a real app loader?

Yup! My only question, should this info remain in the tooltip, or should we have text in the app tiles itself?

Thanks! I think tooltip is fine for now - we don't want to make the app page too 'busy'

It now is somewhat dynamic, if there's no installs, it'll just show favorites, if there's more than 100% of favorites, it'll say more than 100% instead of 132%, or if the total install % is less than 1, it will say it's less that one percent.

Hmm, I had some free time to ponder this some more, and I had the idea of either adding or changing favorites to have a like symbol next to it. I think the main disconnect we see in the use of favorites are the fact that most users just don't use it. Having a thumbs up symbol will hopefully signal to users that they can just 'like' the app like they do on most sites already (youtube, music, etc.) , and in the end, we can show that on the infoTxt in the stats tooltip, probably in addition to the favorites so users can keep a personal list of apps. Wdyt @gfwilliams?
