AppTweak’s leading ASO tool has undergone a considerable makeover over the past few years, and some interesting innovations might have slipped your attention. In this blog, we share our favorite 10 hidden gems on AppTweak that could make a difference in growing your apps and games even further.


Hidden gem #1: Optimize Metadata

Did you know that AppTweak recently launched a new feature called Optimize Metadata that will make your keyword selection process even more efficient?

This tool allows you to write and compare drafts for your title, subtitle, and keyword field for iOS, or for your title, short description, and long description for Google Play.

We have also added an insightful metric called “Recommendation” that suggests the keywords we believe you should include in your metadata based on ASO best practices. This is an indicator between 1 (low) and 4 (high) that takes into account the Keyword Efficiency Index (KEI), rankings, and downloads of your app and your competitors.

Are you localizing your app in many different languages? Ever needed to analyze the potential of keywords despite having no idea of their meaning? Fret no more! AppTweak has a magic button to ease your way out.

Instead of heading to Google Translate to translate each keyword one by one, you can translate your followed keywords (in any language) into English, French, Japanese, Korean, or Chinese (Simplified) depending on the language you have set on AppTweak. This will help you understand the meaning of the keywords you are evaluating and focus on the ones most suitable for your app.

Hidden gem #5: Relevancy score (new KPI) in the keyword table

When choosing the best keywords for your ASO work, you may look for the ones with the highest search volumes and the biggest opportunity to rank your app high. You could also consider the number of potential installs each keyword would bring to your app. However, did you know that AppTweak also allows you to focus on keywords that are highly relevant to your app?

To help you choose the most relevant keywords for your app, we have introduced a relevancy score for each keyword on AppTweak. The relevancy score is an indicator between 0 and 100 that indicates how suitable a keyword is to an app – a higher score indicates higher relevancy.

This feature, available for Power plans and Enterprise plans in the US, can be found here:
