AppMagic review (2026): is it worth it?
Mobile and Steam market data: revenue, downloads, ads and ASO
AppMagic report card
Weak · out of 4.0 · graded Oct 23, 2026
Best for mobile and Steam market estimates for game studios
AppMagic estimates revenue and downloads for mobile apps, games and Steam titles, and covers ad creatives, Apple Ads and keyword data. There's no price on the site, no free plan and no trial: the pricing page is a demo form, and the quote comes after the call. Its footer also names Sensor Tower, Inc. as the owner, so comparing it with Sensor Tower means comparing two products of one company.
Who AppMagic is for
- Fits if you're a game studio sizing a genre or a rival on mobile and Steam
- Works for marketing teams studying rivals' ad creatives and Apple Ads activity
Who AppMagic is not for
- Not for you if you want a price before a call, as there's none on the site
- Skip it if you want to try it first, since there's no free plan or trial, only a demo
- Watch out: it's owned by Sensor Tower, Inc., so it isn't a separate company to weigh against Sensor Tower
- Watch out: revenue and download figures are estimates, not numbers reported by the stores
- Too light for day-to-day listing work, with no rank tracking, listing editor or integrations on record
Why AppMagic gets a 1.6
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyNo price is published. The pricing page is a demo request form, and the price is only given on a sales call, matched to your use case.
- FFree plan and trialNothing free on record: no free plan and no trial, only the demo call with the sales team.
- CFeaturesRevenue and download estimates, store rankings, retention and session data, ad creatives, Apple Ads and keyword data, plus Steam games. The ASO side is keyword and Apple Ads data; there's no keyword rank tracking or listing editor on record.
- CEase of useNo rating on record. You start with a demo built around your use case, and it's a large market data tool with a lot of reports to learn.
- CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with no desktop or phone app, and no integrations or API on the listing.

Keep AppMagic, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace AppMagic 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: 39 of the 42 other app store optimization tools grade higher.
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.
- Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services.
What this rests on. AppMagic’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.
