Have you ever done ASO in a language you’re not familiar with? We do so all the time! We know that feeling when you end up analyzing keywords and you have no idea what they mean. It can be totally mind screwing! Well, screw no more! AppTweak has nailed it (no funny jokes intended)!


App localization: Easier said than done!

If you’ve been doing ASO for a while, you’re probably well aware of how important it is to localize your app across your targeted markets. Of course, this is more easily said than done. Your first challenge is to find high volume keywords in the new language you’re working on.

  • Suggesting relevant keywords for your app and your competitors in our keyword research tool
  • Giving you an accurate volume estimation for those keywords using a native dictionary and app store data
