Pulling metadata, screenshots and recent reviews from the App Store.
Solid listing with a few clear gaps to close.
Land the top 3 fixes below and this listing reaches 88/100 · 7,787 m (Summit Ridge).
Ordered by how many points each one adds to the score. Start at the top.
5/30 characters used.
The title is the heaviest ranking field. You have 25 characters unused: add your strongest keyword after the name, e.g. “BLADE: <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”).
17 ratings.
Rating volume feeds ranking and trust. Add an in-app prompt at a positive moment; most apps collect 1 to 3 percent of active users this way.
On iOS, only the title, subtitle and hidden keyword field count for search. The description does not. Words you only mention there are invisible.
1 unique word. Apple combines them, so “budget” and “planner” also rank for “budget planner”.
The first three do most of the selling: they appear directly in search results. Read them as a stranger would, in two seconds.
Grouped by theme from the most recent written reviews. Run this on a competitor and the complaints become your feature list.
Reads the recent reviews in any language and tells you what to fix, and what a competitor could exploit.
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.
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.
Generic notes: “Minor bug fixes and performance improvements for a smoother, more reli…”
“Bug fixes and improvements” tells existing users nothing. Name what changed: it is free re-engagement copy shown in the Updates tab.
3 iPad screenshots.
The app runs on iPad but shows few or no iPad screenshots. iPad visitors see a weaker listing.
Three title and subtitle options plus a keyword field, each checked against Apple's character limits.
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.

“they canceled my flight early morning and told me to use my credits for another car concierge service 2 hours before they open… but they’re not open to even book it”
“Advertises itself as comparable to Uber with prices but its simply not true lol $195 per person to JFK is not the same as a $60 car.”
“After a few years, the UI of this thing is still stupidly pathetic Please include the schedule of the flights accordingly Please auto apply credits / return trips It’s…”
“The latest app update is forcing me to login every time. My phone for some reason isn’t remembering the password- maybe because it’s a web page pulled in an app? Regardle…”
“Not only is this app intuitive and pain free to use, the customer service at blade is second to none. A must have app in the NYC area that will change your traveling/comm…”
“Not only is the FlyBlade service the fastest and easiest way to the hamptons, but it's by far the most comfortable. The money spent is well worth the time saved.”
“Just used this app to book a seat to Miami right from Manhattan. Shaved 45 minutes of traffic off my life. What will these guys think of next?”
“The impact of a beautiful UI and frictionless UX mustn’t be understated. Blade’s needs some work if it truly intends to be the “Uber of air mobility”.”
