Pitu, which is owned by Tencent, one of the largest internet companies in China, has reached number one for downloads in the App store for countries like China, Hong Kong and Taiwan, according to its listing description.

The app has also been downloaded some 10 million times according to the Google Play app store, though it's worth noting that some in China use 3rd party app stores so the total number of downloads across the country could be far higher.
