Most installs start with an app store search.
A large share of app downloads come from people searching or browsing inside the app stores. ASO improves two things: visibility (ranking for the right keywords and categories) and conversion (turning store visitors into installs with strong icons, screenshots, videos and reviews).
Each store works differently — Apple relies heavily on title, subtitle and keyword fields, while Google Play reads your full description. We optimise for both, test creatives with native store experiments and localise listings for your key markets.
ASO helps if…
- Your app does not rank for obvious keywords
- Store visitors rarely install
- Screenshots have not changed in a long time
- Your rating is lower than competitors
- You are launching in new countries
