In case you were debating with your friends this entire week (or life) over who is the most popular of the Kardashian clan, we're one step closer to a clear answer: It's Kylie Jenner, and overwhelmingly so.

The iTunes store anointed the 18-year-old and her new venture, Kylie Jenner Official App, as its No. 1 downloaded free application on Wednesday. The five Kardashian sisters announced Monday they would each be releasing their own eponymous app, begging the question: Whose app would get the most downloads?

It's a huge feat, as Kylie Jenner -- who's been making the rounds this New York Fashion Week with trophy boyfriend Tyga in tow -- beat out Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Snapchat in the store.

Kylie has a massive following on Snapchat, as well, so her influence on mobile shouldn't come as too much of a surprise.

And in case you're wondering how the rest of the sisters stack up, it's Khloe at No. 8; Kim at No. 11; then Kendall at No. 16. (Kourtney's app will debut at a later date.)

On Monday, the sisters had a presentation with Apple, explaining their content and its strategy. Each of the apps will focus on something different, while all will include Q&As, livestreams and possible e-commerce platforms. Kylie's will focus on -- no surprise -- beauty tips.

It's impressive for the teen, who's already become a fashion designer and spokesperson to many a brand. But she's no average teenager, said sister Khloe, in a cover story with Complex magazine.

"Kylie is taking business meetings and bought her first house, or she’s going on a private plane with Karl Lagerfeld to take a meeting," she said. "That's not even what people do in their 30s. It's a rare circumstance, so let’s treat this as a special case."

Whether or not you've already downloaded the app, it's obvious it's a Kardashian-clad world. We're just living in it.
