App Store & Google Play Keyword Rank Tracker (ASO)

Track where your apps and your competitors rank for any keyword on the App Store and Google Play, in any country – every day, with rank history, top-10 movers, new competitors and rank-drop alerts to Slack or a webhook. A lightweight, pay-per-use alternative to ASO tools that cost $50+/month.

• ✅ Both stores, any country: us, gb, de, jp, br… – ranks are checked per country.
• ✅ Track your apps and competitors by URL, App Store id, package name – or just the app name.
• ✅ App Store ranks up to #200, Google Play ranks in the top ~30 shown for the keyword.
• ✅ Top apps per keyword (name, developer, rating, rating count, price, genre) – instant keyword research.
• ✅ Changes since the last run: rank gains and drops, apps entering or leaving the top 10, new competitors in the top 5.
• ✅ Visibility score (0–100) per app across all keywords, plus top-3 / top-10 counts.
• ✅ Slack / webhook alerts and an optional fixed report link with the rank matrix.

    "platform": "googleplay",
    "country": "us",
    "resultsChecked": 30,
    "ranks": { "com.habitnow": 2, "org.isoron.uhabits": 1, "Habitica": 5 },
    "bestTrackedRank": 1,
    "tracked": [
        { "app": "com.habitnow", "name": "HabitNow Daily Routine Planner", "rank": 2, "previousRank": 8, "change": 6, "bestRank": 2, "inTop10": true }
    ],
    "topApps": [
        { "rank": 1, "appId": "org.isoron.uhabits", "name": "Loop Habit Tracker", "developer": "Álinson S Xavier", "rating": 4.72, "price": 0, "currency": "USD", "url": "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.isoron.uhabits" }
    ],
    "enteredTop10": [],
    "leftTop10": [],
    "alerts": ["HabitNow Daily Routine Planner climbed 8 → 2 for \"habit tracker\" (Google Play US)"]
}

FAQ

How accurate are the ranks? App Store ranks come from Apple's public search API, which follows App Store search closely; the live App Store can differ by a few places because it is personalized. Google Play ranks are read from the public search page for the chosen country and language.

Why is my Google Play app not ranked? Google Play shows about 30 apps per keyword. Apps below that are reported as null (not in the visible results).

Can I track iPad or Mac apps? The App Store search covers iPhone apps (most universal apps are included).

Is it legal? The Actor reads public store search results only and collects no personal data.
