NEVER LET YOUR APPS GO STALE Orer sends push notifications when tracked iOS apps release new versions, helps you monitor update cadence, and surfaces App Store chart checks by country for the app you are viewing. Managing multiple apps is hard. Remembering when each one was last updated is even harder. Built for indie developers and app marketers, Orer keeps release activity, competitors, and App Store signals in one place. App Store algorithms reward consistency. Orer helps you stay on top of your own shipping rhythm and what others release. Track apps by name or bundle ID, label your own versus competitors, and get notified when versions change. STAY ON TOP OF APP STORE UPDATES Add apps in seconds. Orer checks for new versions on a schedule and alerts you when a release goes live—no manual App Store refreshing. Set optional per-app update intervals (for example 14, 30, or 90 days). If you enable stagnation alerts while tracking an app, Orer can warn you when a release is overdue. STAGNATION ALERTS (WHEN TRACKING AN APP) - Set how often you expect a new version - Get notified if that window passes - Use it for your roadmap discipline or to notice when competitors go quiet COUNTRY RANKS - On the Ranks tab, for the app currently open, Orer checks Top Free or Top Paid for that app’s primary category in each App Store country you add. - If the app is ranked within the range Orer checks, you see its position. If it is not in that range, you see that it is not in the current top results. Some categories may be unsupported. - This is not a full category leaderboard—only that app’s result per country. COMPETITOR MONITORING - Follow competitors and see release frequency and version history - Read release notes over time - Compare activity at a glance with relationship tags EVERYTHING IN ONE DASHBOARD - Update notifications for new versions - Stagnation alerts when you configure them on a tracked app - Country ranks: per-country Top Free / Top Paid result for the open app (rank, not-in-top, or unavailable—not the whole chart) - Version history and metadata changes (Pro) - Portfolio overview of tracked apps - Tasks per app - Reviews across App Store regions - Market details (version, size, category, release data) FREE AND PRO Free: track up to two apps with update notifications. Pro: more apps, deeper version history, advanced stagnation options, tasks, and priority notifications where available. Whether you ship weekly or quarterly, Orer helps you ship with clearer context.
