Hey PH! I built Keyword Scout for iOS because I kept making the same mistake: spending months optimizing for a keyword, only to discover it was locked up by apps with 50k reviews that I had zero chance of displacing. The realization that changed how I think about ASO: search volume is mostly a myth for indie devs. Apple doesn't expose it, and chasing high-volume terms just puts you up against the biggest publishers. The real question is β€” are the top-ranking apps beatable? Three apps with 3.2 stars and 200 reviews is a completely different opportunity than ten apps with 4.8 stars and 50k reviews, even if both keywords "look competitive." So I built a tool that answers that question in seconds: - Saturation score β€” how crowded the field is - Difficulty score β€” how entrenched the top apps actually are - Market comparison β€” the same keyword might be wide open in AU or DE while saturated in the US - Competitor gap analysis β€” keywords your rivals rank for that you're not targeting - Listing grader β€” scored audit of your metadata with specific fixes Free to search any keyword, no account required. The full toolkit is a $9.99 one-time purchase β€” no subscription. Every competing tool I found charges $8–15/month, and I wanted to keep it cheap and didn't want to add another subscription. Happy to answer anything about how the scoring works or what I learned building this. Would especially love to hear from anyone who's done serious ASO β€” I want to know where the scores feel off.
