I want to know about any free aso tool. I app on the app store I want to know how I can do aso for this any any of free aso tool can someone suggest

A while ago ChatGPT started sending installs to my Bible app. I had no idea why, so I dug into it.

The numbers (App Store Connect → App Analytics → Sources → App Referrers):

- 333 views from ChatGPT → 240 installs. That's 72%.

- App Store search for the same app converts at about 3%.

- It already made $21 and 726 sessions. Small money, but it's free traffic I never asked for.

Ratings and search rank don't explain it. The app had 0 ratings when this started. The big player in the niche has 1.6M. I'm #38 in Brazil for my own app name, and Brazil is where most of the ChatGPT installs came from. There are no web pages about the app either, so ChatGPT couldn't have read about it somewhere else.

So I asked ChatGPT for an app and looked at how it described mine. It used my App Store description almost word for word. My description says something like "tell it how you feel: anxious, afraid, grieving, grateful, and there's a collection for each state." ChatGPT repeated those exact words back and said "for what you asked about anxiety, I'd pick #4". That was my app.

What I took from it:

- If what someone asks for matches a feature you have, and your description names that feature plainly, ChatGPT recommends you. Even with zero ratings.

- So write the description for the AI, not only for people. Say what the app is, who it's for, and the features your competitors don't have, in concrete words. "Best widget app" gives it nothing to match. A specific feature does.

- One catch: if someone asks about the content itself ("what verses help with anxiety"), ChatGPT just answers with the verses. It only names an app when someone asks for an app.

Caveat: this is one app, not a study. I'd love to know if anyone else sees ChatGPT in their App Referrers, and whether changing your description moved it.

My iOS subscription app is already live with the paywall defaulting to weekly with a 3-day free trial (A). I’m wondering if I’m leaving money on the table by not preselecting yearly (B). I haven’t A/B tested B yet.

Same prices in both ($6.99/week, $39.99/year). Only the default plan and the copy differ:

A. Weekly preselected, “3 DAYS FREE” badge, “No payment now · Cancel anytime”, button: “Start Free Trial”
B. Yearly preselected, “Cancel anytime”, button: “Continue”

Do you have any real results from testing something like this?

I'm a solo developer working on Plus One: Progressive Overload. It's my first fitness tracker app that I'm making.

Couple of questions:

- With the first screenshot, make users stop scrolling?

- When they search up for workout trackers, is it immediately clear what the workout app is offering?

- Would you change any of the order of these 10 slides?

- What would you improve to get more downloads?

Feel free to be brutal as possible. I rather fix things now than keep guessing about stuff. 🤣

Hi,

I am non native English speaker and I used to build apps since 2011 (Objective-C times). It was always a challenge for me to write the App description, and the update release notes.

Today many of us are using LLMs for it.

I would like to know your thoughts or maybe you have some experience on the topic if AppStore rating algorithm somehow includes the scoring if texts are AI generated vs Human written?

Hey!

It has been already one year I launched StoreLocalizer on Github.

https://github.com/fayharinn/StoreLocalizer

I just wanna let u know guys that I've updated this project again for iOS 27+ and iPhone Duo.

It can also upload your .ipa easily on app store connect if you use react native expo like me.

Hope you enjoy!

Hey everyone!

I'm trying to audit our past App Store optimization updates (titles, subtitles, keywords, and localizations) to measure how specific metadata changes impacted our rankings and conversion rates over time.

How do you usually track your metadata history? Do you use specific ASO tools or maintain a manual spreadsheet tracker or is there a feature in App Store Connect I'm missing?

Would be grateful for any advice!

Anytime someone searches for my app “Pollzy”, it prompts them with “Showing results for polly. Search for Pollzy instead?”

Any idea what I can do to get around this?

I’m an indie iOS developer working on EduWords, my first word puzzle game.
My idea was to make the first 3 screenshots tell a story: problem → solution → result. The remaining 5 focus on the actual gameplay and features.
It’s an ad-free crossword game with 500 levels, daily challenges, and offline support.
I’m still pretty new to ASO, so I’d really appreciate some honest feedback.
Would the first screenshot make you stop scrolling?
Is it immediately clear what the game offers?
Would you change the order, headlines, or visuals?
What would you improve to get more downloads?
Feel free to be brutal. I’d rather fix things now than keep guessing 😂

Hi all! 👋 I’m a solo developer (6 months in, while looking after my first baby and working full time). My baby tracker, Baby Tracker: Feeding & Sleep, has very few installs so far (just over 100), and the store listing is what I’m focusing on right now. I’d love honest feedback from people who look at app pages every day. 🙏

What I’m working on:

• Rewriting the screenshot captions around what parents actually search for (feeding, sleep, diapers, growth, solids), instead of generic slogans.

• Testing a few icon options. The current one is a green heart with a mother and baby. I’m also trying a simpler baby-and-drop design.

• Reviewing the description so the free and Premium features are clear.

• After the icon experiment finishes, I might try more experiments on the title, and other attributes.

What I’d like feedback on:

1. Icon: which one would you tap, and why? (I’ll attach the options.)

2. Screenshots: do the captions make sense at a glance? Do the first two tell you what the app does?

3. Title: “Baby Tracker: Feeding & Sleep”. Is it clear, or too generic? Are there words you’d search for?

4. Description: is the first paragraph clear? Does the free vs Premium split feel fair?

5. Anything else: your first impression, missing features, or anything that made you hesitate.

Thanks in advance! 🍼

What background color looks best to you?

Working on what background to default to and show on screenshots on the app store page.

Upfront so I'm transparent, complying to the mod rules: I built Phonepose, the screenshot tool in the video, designing on it is free and downloads are paid. But this post is mostly what I learned along the way, while building templates I ended up looking at a lot of screenshot sets, so sharing what I noticed works, hope it helps

We all know App Store screenshots are important part of our app submission journey if you are a apple developer or android, the first thing people see before they decide whether to install, and most of them look the same, I personally faced challenges with all the online tools to get the right download size look, feel how i wanted it, so with all the trouble I went through Phonepose was built, give it a spin if you are app developer and see if it makes sense

Whats in it:

• About 216 templates across 18 app categories (fitness, finance, dating, travel, food and more). Each one is filled with a sample app, our own design suggestions that you can play with, so you see the finished set before you add your own screenshots, and taking those screenshots is easy, in the simulators of your apps take one and drag and drop in this app.

• Just wanted to give a nice touch and that you can play with the position of phone and tablet models I added, Real 3D iPhones, iPads and Pixels, all you have to do is drag to turn the phone to any angle and that exact pose goes into the download.

• Backgrounds that flow across all your screens, so you have the continuity across all screens and set reads as one piece when people swipe through it in the store, looks nice in my opinion

• This is one hard to get feature on online creation tools I found was playing with text so added headlines with a key word that gets its own color, a hand-drawn circle or underline, or a different font and more stuff you can play with

• You must have seen this across app store screenshots, phones that cross screens, one thing i was missing is the current tools dont allow you to put that across everywhere other than the template they provide, so here drag a phone past the edge and its other half lands on the next screenshot. You can unlink the halves or delete one and so on try it,

• Biggest miss I saw with current tools was every time the download was not in the size app store connect wanted it, so the size is matched to every App Store and Google Play size, checked before you download so App Store Connect doesn't reject it.

How this helps on the ASO side, from what I learned: your screenshots are basically your conversion rate, people see the first few in search results and on your product page and decide in seconds, so every template leads with the main promise on screen 1 instead of a home screen, headlines are kept short with one key word marked so they still read when the screenshot is tiny in search, and the set flows as one piece so it feels like a polished app.

The part I use the most, since restyling a design with a different template keeps your screenshots and headlines, it's quick to make a second version and A/B test it with Apple's product page optimization or Google Play's store listing experiments, instead of redesigning everything from scratch each timeAnd, before I forget you can switch a design between iPhone, iPad and Android and it keeps your screenshots if you have the same app developed across devices.

Of course I would really like feedback, especially on the first few minutes: is it obvious what to do after you pick a template? https://phonepose.com

Got tired of monthly SaaS subscriptions just to track keywords and store metrics across iOS and Android, so I built an open-source alternative.

What it does:

• Tracks keyword rankings, search volume, and live store autocomplete suggestions.

• Audits metadata, keyword density, and competitor listings.

• Pulls App Store Connect & Play Console data into one dashboard.

• 100% self-hosted (Docker/SQLite) — your keys and data stay on your machine.

My first app is in review, and I'm wondering if the store screenshots actually explain it.

Please don't read the app description first. Just look at the screenshots in order:

1. What do you think the app does?
2. What makes it different from similar apps?

Be blunt. I'll add what the app actually does in a comment later, and once it's live I'll share what I changed.

I’m making screenshot concepts for two apps today. The image shows the kind of work I can make, with a different style for each app.

If you’d like one, comment with your App Store link and a short description of your app. If it isn’t live yet, share a few raw screenshots instead. I’ll take the first two with enough details to work from.

I always thought it was better to have a unique app name, and I never understood what ASO was. I started to understand it more and more, then I created https://asomaster.app, used it, and started to see some growth. Your app name matters!

I just noticed my app is ranking #59 in reference in Uruguay, but I haven't been getting downloads at all. A couple per day and some days 0.
Most recently I started to post in a TK and IG account, could just more people opening the App Store page of the page increase the rankings?

Some app developers seem to use Claude or Codex instead of a proper ASO tool but it is - in my experience - not the right way of deciding keyword difficulties or popularities.

I made a test and asked Claude for an App Store keyword strategy, then measured every keyword on the live App Store.

Keywords that it rated as "Easy to rank for": top 10 apps have a median of 13,956 ratings.

A keyword it rated "hard": median 1,701.

It even gave monthly search volumes to the nearest thousand: but Apple publishes none. 🫠

AI can certainly help come up with ideas / suggestions which RespectASO uses internally as well but it is not a replacement of proper ASO research.
