Weak App Store Discovery
Indie app developers struggle to get their apps discovered and convert store visitors into installs due to ineffective ASO and keyword targeting.
In their words
hard to tell the real functional differences beyond the pricing pages
I get almost 200 App Store product page views per day, but only about 1% of them actually download the app.
It's so annoying having chrome lag back days with your stats when you could use that data to make marketing moves in real time.
We're sitting at 4.2 stars with plenty of positive feedback, yet we barely show up when people search for the kinds of keywords we'd expect to rank for.
the store has been flooded daily with low-effort, AI-generated copycat apps that are severely eating into my market share
We've gotten maybe a couple of installs from all of this. And the people who did install it used it for a few minutes and then disappeared.
Clearing the gate just means Google lets you hit publish, it doesn't mean a single person finds the app.
The ASO tools that seem to deliver real results cost hundreds of euros a month; everything else seems to have no effect
I've invested heavily in ASO ... So far... nothing. Very few downloads... Almost no subscriptions
My videos consistently get around 2,500 views per day. But I'm only getting 1-2 new downloads per day from TikTok.
accept that a one time purchase utility app probably cannot pay for paid acquisition at all
What I'm trying to avoid is spending months creating content or running campaigns that generate views but no installs.
When users search for my exact app name, apple shoves 2 full screen ads on top of the search results.
finding apps is best done with an external search as the internal one hides apps even when searched for directly by name

Why those fall short
- unrelated videos get traction but none transfer to users
- no visibility into free vs paid conversion
- Apple aggregates low-volume terms and suggests irrelevant keywords, hiding real queries
- App Store discovery feels opaque; Play rewards localisation and has a discovery algorithm
- standard ASO guides do not explain why apps stay unindexed or invisible
