App Store Ranking Tracker (Apple) 📊

Track where iOS apps rank for search keywords, or pull the App Store top charts — by country and category. No API key required.

Where your app ranks for a keyword, and who's topping the charts, is core app store optimization (ASO) and market intelligence. This Actor tells you an app's rank for any search term, or pulls the top free / paid / grossing charts for any country and category — all from Apple's public endpoints.

Uses Apple's public search + charts feeds — no key, no login, no browser.

Modes

Keyword rank

Provide keywords and the apps you want the rank of (by ID or name). Get one row per app per keyword with its rank (or "not found" within your search depth).

{
  "mode": "keyword",
  "keywords": ["budget app", "expense tracker"],
  "appNames": ["Mint"],
  "searchDepth": 100,
  "countries": ["us"]
}

Leave the apps empty to instead list the top apps for each keyword (discovery).

Top charts

Pull the top free / paid / grossing apps, optionally by genre.

{
  "mode": "charts",
  "chartType": "topfree",
  "genreId": "6014",
  "limit": 100,
  "countries": ["us", "gb"]
}

Common genre IDs: 6014 Games, 6015 Finance, 6023 Food & Drink, 6017 Education, 6020 Medical, 6007 Productivity.

Notes & limitations

• Uses Apple's public search + RSS charts feeds — no key needed.
• Keyword rank reflects Apple's public search ordering for that term and storefront (a strong proxy for ASO rank).
• Search depth is capped at 200 results per keyword (Apple's limit).
• Covers the Apple App Store.
• This is public ranking data.
