Applyra review (2026): is the free plan enough?
Flat-price ASO keyword tracker for the App Store and Google Play
Applyra report card
Fair · out of 4.0 · graded Oct 23, 2026
Best for unlimited keyword tracking at a flat price
Applyra tracks keyword ranks daily on both stores, scores difficulty and traffic and suggests listing text with AI, with one paid plan at $8.33 a month on yearly billing for unlimited apps and keywords. That 'unlimited' sits under a fair-use policy, though, there are no review replies or team plan on record, and free users keep only 7 days of history.
Who Applyra is for
- Fits if you're an indie developer tracking lots of keywords on both stores for one price
- Works for developers who want to ask an AI assistant about their ranks through MCP
Who Applyra is not for
- Tight if you're staying free, as Free stops at 1 app, 5 keywords, 1 competitor and 7 days of history
- Watch out: 'unlimited' is subject to a fair-use policy, and the API stops at 10,000 requests a month
- Not for you if you're a team or an agency, as there's no team or enterprise plan
- Skip it if you need review replies or download estimates, as neither is on record here
- Watch out: the price is 9.99 in your own currency, so €9.99 or £9.99 rather than a converted figure
Why Applyra gets a 2.4
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- BValue for moneyUnlimited is $8.33 a month billed annually ($9.99 monthly) for unlimited apps, keywords, competitors and history, with exports, MCP and 10,000 API requests a month. That's inside this category's cheaper quarter, which runs to $10.
- CFree plan and trialA permanent free plan with no card: 1 app, 5 keywords, 1 competitor, 7 days of ranking history and 25 keyword inspections a month. Five keywords and a week of history is a cap you'll hit fast.
- CFeaturesDaily tracking on both stores, difficulty and traffic scores, competitor alerts, AI listing suggestions and metadata simulators. It does keyword work fully, but that's a smaller job: no review replies or download estimates are on record, and there's no team plan.
- CEase of useNo rating on record. You add your apps, keywords and competitors before the dashboard shows anything useful.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with no desktop or phone app. It connects to App Store Connect, has a REST API capped at 10,000 requests a month, and an MCP server for ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor and Codex.

Keep Applyra, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Applyra 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.
It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.4 is higher than 30 of the 42 other app store optimization tools we grade. It costs $99.96 a year.
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, ChatGPT and Claude among them, and has an API.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. Applyra’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.
