ASOTools looks up keyword popularity, volume and difficulty on both stores, shows rivals' keywords and estimates downloads and revenue. The site says everything is free since Appark.ai bought it, but its terms still talk about paid subscriptions and the pricing page shows no plans. Data refreshes daily only for charting apps and the ones you add, and keyword data stops at 46 countries. - **Value for money: A.** Free, with every feature open since the Appark.ai acquisition, per the site's notice: keyword research, keyword spy, app analytics and download and revenue estimates. Most paid tools in this category start between $12 and $49 a month. - **Free plan and trial: A.** Free outright with an account, with no plans or caps on record. The one doubt is that its terms still describe paid subscriptions. - **Features: C.** Keyword popularity, volume and difficulty in 46 countries, rivals' keywords, download and revenue estimates and top charts. The basics with gaps: no listing editor on record, and data is daily only for charting apps and ones you add. - **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. Looking up a keyword is quick, but you need an account, and an app's data is kept fresh only once you add it. - **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web, plus a Chrome extension that now carries the Appark name and works on Google Play only. No integrations or API on record. These are ToolGPA's own grades. Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from ASOTools's own pages on 23 October 2026.
