Our top three app store optimization tools
Asodesk comes first: one web account covers keyword research, rank tracking, a metadata optimizer and competitor analytics on both stores, with a free plan for one app and 200 keywords, though Pro is $47 a month billed annually for two apps. AsoBeast is second for several apps at $10 a month, and RespectASO third for iOS developers on a Mac who want to pay nothing. AppFollow narrowly missed: its free plan tracks 2 apps and 1,000 keywords, but its own comparison says Google Play ranks stop at the top 30 to 50.
First: Asodesk
Free plan · from $47/mo
For: Most app developers and small app teams
Asodesk covers the App Store and Google Play: keyword research with daily impression estimates, a position table with Search Ads popularity, a metadata optimizer, competitors' positions and top charts, and 100 review replies a month. The free plan keeps 1 app, 200 keywords and 1 teammate, and the 7-day trial needs no card. Know the limits: Pro is $47 a month billed annually ($59 monthly) for only 2 apps and 700 keywords, optimizer export and the full alerts need Guru at $159, the organic installs report needs Power at $343, and it runs in a browser only.
Asodesk pricing and detailsSecond: AsoBeast
Free plan · from $10/mo
For: Developers tracking several apps for a few dollars
AsoBeast checks keyword positions daily to position 200 on the App Store and Google Play in every country you add, flags the day a rival changes its title or icon, and ranks fixes in a task list, with an API and MCP server. Hosted Indie is $10 a month for 5 apps and 1,000 keyword markets, or the AGPL code is free to run yourself with Docker. It is second because there is no free hosted plan after the 7-day trial, a keyword market is one keyword in one country, the next plan jumps to $99, and there is no uptime guarantee.
AsoBeast pricing and detailsThird: RespectASO
Free plan · from ₹1,800/mo
For: iOS developers on a Mac who want to pay nothing
RespectASO is a free, open-source Mac app that researches App Store keywords in 175 storefronts, with popularity and a 1 to 100 difficulty score, a country opportunity finder, the top 10 apps per keyword and daily rank tracking, all kept on your Mac with no account. Pro is a one-off licence for 3 or 12 months, priced in local currency. It is third because it covers the iOS App Store only, with no Google Play research. Pro runs only on Apple Silicon Macs, a Docker edition for Linux and Windows has the free features alone, and Pro's AI tools need your own paid API key or a local model.

Common questions
What are the best app store optimization tools?
As of Oct 24, 2026, ToolGPA ranks Asodesk first (for: most app developers and small app teams), AsoBeast second (for: developers tracking several apps for a few dollars), RespectASO third (for: iOS developers on a Mac who want to pay nothing).
How does ToolGPA rank app store optimization tools?
From what each tool's own pages show (price, free plan, platforms, features and limits) and from what people say about it in public reviews and discussions. Not from our own testing. First place goes to the tool that suits the most people, and second and third to the best choices for the readers it leaves out.
