The report card
Best for editing store listings and tracking keywords together
App Radar, owned by SplitMetrics, tracks keywords on both stores, follows competitors and has a listing editor that pushes text changes to the App Store and Google Play from one screen. Essentials is €58 a month on yearly billing for just 2 apps, 1 seat and 50 review replies. The trial needs a card, and the API is an add-on from €199.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | D | Essentials is €58 a month billed annually (€69 monthly), more than the $49 where this category's dearest tenth starts. That buys 2 apps, 500 keywords and 1 seat; AI review replies need Growth at €141. |
| Free plan and trial | D | No free plan. The 7-day trial needs a credit card and the plan starts unless you cancel before the end, and refunds are limited to 48 hours after a charge. |
| Features | B | Keyword research on a database it puts at 100 million keywords in 90+ countries, rank tracking, a listing editor that publishes to both stores, competitors' metadata and download estimates, review replies and an ASO dashboard. It covers the whole job. |
| Ease of use | C | No rating on record. You connect App Store Connect and Google Play Console, then add apps, keywords and competitors before the dashboard fills in. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web only, with no desktop or phone app. It connects to App Store Connect, Google Play Console and Slack, and the API is an add-on from €199 for 3,000 requests a month. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who App Radar is for
- Fits if you edit store listings in many languages and want to push them to both stores from one place
- Works for small teams with 1 or 2 apps and a few hundred keywords
Who it is not for
- Not for you if you want to try it without a card, as the 7-day trial turns into a plan unless you cancel
- Tight if you're on Essentials, which stops at 2 apps, 1 seat and 50 review replies a month
- Pricey if you want AI review replies or summaries, which start at Growth, €141 a month billed annually
- Watch out: the API is an add-on from €199 a month, and extra review replies cost from €39 for 150
- Watch out: prices are listed in euros, and refunds only cover 48 hours after a charge

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace App Radar you would be making keyword rankings and popularity scores from both app stores, gathered every day. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 25 of the 42 other app store optimization tools grade higher. It costs $779.94 a year.
What you could make
- Reports: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Keyword rankings and popularity scores from both app stores, gathered every day.
- Search volumes for millions of keywords, gathered and kept up to date.
- Daily checks of where your pages rank in search results.
- It plugs into other products, App Store Connect, Google Play Console and Slack among them, and has an API.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. App Radar’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
