Know which apps are growing, where they earn, and how people find them. ASO Analytics brings your App Store sales, subscription reports, and keyword rankings together on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Built for indie developers, it connects directly to Apple with your own App Store Connect API key. Your sales data never passes through our servers. FOLLOW YOUR APP BUSINESS • See downloads and revenue by week, month, or quarter. • Switch between customer prices and developer proceeds, with revenue converted into your preferred supported currency. • Follow subscription performance and monthly recurring revenue. • View impressions, product page views, and conversions when Apple's analytics reports are available. • On Mac and iPad, open a portfolio overview with totals, app performance changes, keyword movements, and top markets. TRACK YOUR KEYWORD POSITIONS • Check rankings from the App Store's own search across the markets you choose. • Follow rank history and see which keywords move up or down. • Explore Apple's search suggestions and the apps appearing at the top of each search. • Compare estimated keyword popularity and difficulty, and sort your tracked list by either score or position. • Keep notes alongside each keyword's history. Popularity and difficulty are ASO Analytics estimates, not search-volume figures supplied by Apple. Automatic rank checks run when the app is open and when background time is available. FIND MARKETS WORTH A CLOSER LOOK Compare downloads and revenue by country. Review localization coverage against a year of installs to spot markets where your listing may need another language. Insights include context when your app's install history is still small. KEEP CONTROL OF YOUR DATA Your API key stays in the device's Keychain. Reports are processed on your device, and stored data syncs through your private iCloud database. No ads, advertising identifiers, or usage analytics. Indie subscriptions use RevenueCat to process purchase information and an anonymous app identifier. RevenueCat does not receive your App Store Connect API key or sales reports. START FREE. EXPAND WITH INDIE. Free includes keyword tracking for up to 2 apps, 2 markets per app, and 10 keywords per market. An optional Indie subscription expands tracking to 5 apps, 5 markets per app, and 25 keywords per market. Choose a monthly or yearly subscription.

GET STARTED Connect your App Store Connect API key with the Sales and Reports role using the setup guide, or explore sample data before connecting your account.
