FAQ

What is the best ASO tool for an indie iOS developer?

Astro tracks keywords for $108 a year, and AppSprint, at the same price, also edits metadata and changes Apple Ads bids. Do you want your AI assistant to read your rankings, Apple Ads and RevenueCat data while your computer is off? Storewake does that for $19 a month or $190 a year.

For ASO, Storewake costs $19 a month, Appfigures' keyword tracking starts at $44.99 a month, and Astro and AppSprint cost $108 a year. Of these, only Appfigures also covers Google Play.
