Ordered by how many points each one adds to the score. Start at the top.
6/30 characters used.
The title is the heaviest ranking field. You have 24 characters unused: add your strongest keyword after the name, e.g. “Gabe's: <main keyword>”.

1 language.
Each localisation adds a new title, subtitle and 100-character keyword field. Even without translating the app, localise the listing for ES, DE, FR, PT-BR and JA.
On iOS, only the title, subtitle and hidden keyword field count for search. The description does not. Words you only mention there are invisible.
2 unique words. Apple combines them, so “budget” and “planner” also rank for “budget planner”.
