Well optimised. What's left is fine-tuning.
Land the top 3 fixes below and this listing reaches 89/100 · 7,876 m (Summit Ridge).
Ordered by how many points each one adds to the score. Start at the top.
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.
18/30 characters used.
The title is the heaviest ranking field. You have 12 characters unused: add your strongest keyword after the name, e.g. “1000 Hours Out: <main keyword>”.
Title is the name alone.
Nobody searches for a name they have never heard of. Append what the app does in the words people type (“Habit Tracker”, “Budget Planner”).
On iOS, only the title, subtitle and hidden keyword field count for search. The description does not. Words you only mention there are invisible.
3 unique words. Apple combines them, so “budget” and “planner” also rank for “budget planner”.
The description keeps coming back to these, but the title and subtitle skip them. Check each one in Keyword Scout and move the winners into the keyword field.
The first three do most of the selling: they appear directly in search results. Read them as a stranger would, in two seconds.
Apple returned fewer than five written reviews for this store. Try another country, or come back when more arrive.
Apps Apple shows next to this one, run through the same audit.
Metadata Studio checks character limits, wasted words and keyword coverage as you type.
Audit of the public listing as of today. The hidden 100-character keyword field cannot be read from outside App Store Connect, so it is not scored.
9/30 characters used.
21 characters unused. Fit one more keyword phrase in.
Generic notes: “- Fixed issue sharing badges”
“Bug fixes and improvements” tells existing users nothing. Name what changed: it is free re-engagement copy shown in the Updates tab.
Last update 87 days ago.
Apps that ship regularly get re-crawled and keep their ranking. Aim for an update every 4 to 6 weeks, even a small one.
Three title and subtitle options plus a keyword field, each checked against Apple's character limits.
