App Store Scraper & ASO: Ranked Keywords, Rank Tracker

App Store Scraper & ASO: Ranked Keywords, Rank Tracker

Give it an iPhone app and get every keyword it ranks for in App Store search, no keyword list needed. Add competitors and see where they outrank you and which keywords they rank for that you don't. The same Actor tracks keyword rankings, search suggestions, top charts 200 deep, reviews, and competitor page changes: subtitle, in-app purchase prices, screenshots, description and version.

Schedule it with Only report changes and get just the news: keywords gained or lost, ranking moves, a competitor's new subtitle or price, new reviews.

Export as JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML, or use it as an App Store API. No browser, no Apple account, no API key.

How it works

1. Choose what to do: Ranked keywords, Keyword rankings, Keyword suggestions, Top charts, App details & competitor changes or Reviews
2. Add apps: App Store links, numeric IDs (570060128) or bundle IDs. For ranked keywords, your app first, then competitors
3. Add countries: us, gb, de, jp, br... (rankings differ by country; 115 App Store countries)
4. Optional: switch on Only report changes and schedule the task daily

Only report changes: how monitoring works

Monitoring turns a scheduled run into alerts. It works in three steps:

1. Switch on Only report changes and pick a Monitor name (one name per project)
2. Save as a task and schedule it, for example every morning (Actor page → Save as a new task → Schedule)
3. First run saves the current state and returns everything marked change: new. Every later run compares with the previous run and returns only the differences. An empty result means nothing changed

What you get on later runs:

Mode	What counts as a change	Example row
Ranked keywords	A keyword gained (entered), lost (dropped_out) or moved	learn spanish: down, was 1, now 3
Keyword rankings, top charts	An app moved at least Minimum position change places, entered or dropped out	language learning: up, was 6, now 1
App details	A changed field on a competitor's page	subtitle: before Meditation & Sleep, after Mental Health, Stress
Reviews	Only reviews newer than the last run	new 1-star review

Field	Description
change	up, down, entered (appeared in results, chart or ranked keywords), dropped_out, new (first run)
position, previousPosition, positionChange	Now, at the last run, places gained (+) or lost (-)
changes	Ranked keywords: the change for every listed app
field, oldValue, newValue	App details: what changed on the page

Use a different Monitor name for each task, otherwise two tasks overwrite each other's memory. You pay for the checks, not for the changes found.

Reviews

Field	Description
reviewId, userName, at	The review, its author and date
score, reviewTitle, text	Stars 1-5, title and text
version, voteSum, voteCount	App version reviewed, helpful votes

Apple gives the 500 newest or most helpful reviews per app and country.

Tips

• App ID is the number after id in the App Store link: apps.apple.com/us/app/duolingo/id570060128 → 570060128. Links and bundle IDs work too.
• Ranked keywords are found, not guessed: every row was checked in App Store search at run time. Apple publishes no list of all ranked keywords, so very long-tail keywords that appear nowhere in the listing or suggestions can be missed; add them in Keywords.
• Rankings differ by country: add each market you care about.
• For daily tracking, create a task per project, switch on Only report changes and add a schedule. Send results to email, Slack or Google Sheets with integrations.
• Android too: Google Play Scraper & ASO Rank Tracker has the same fields and monitoring.

Use with the API and AI agents

Run it via the Apify API from Python, Node.js or any HTTP client, or connect it to Claude, ChatGPT and other AI agents through the Apify MCP server: "Which keywords does Calm rank for in the US App Store that Headspace doesn't?"
