AppSkyline App Rankings

Use this when someone asks to start tracking a keyword for their app in a given language and country. Returns the new keyword; adding the same term twice creates two rows. Keywords without a country are skipped by the weekly rank check. Not for a one-off rank lookup.

Use this when someone asks to stop tracking one of their keywords. Returns deleted, or not-found for an unknown id or one outside the account. Weekly rank checks stop and past snapshots stay, leaving a gap if it is tracked again later. Not for pausing tracking temporarily.

Use this when someone asks about one of their AppSkyline apps, such as which stores it is on or which languages it supports. Returns the app's name, default and supported locales, App Store, Mac App Store, Google Play and Microsoft Store ids, and creation and edit times. Not for the live public store page or ratings.

Use this when someone asks how many downloads, installs, uninstalls or crashes their app had over a period. Returns store-reported totals, the latest 30 daily rows and top countries for one app and store; metric names differ by store. Not for keyword rankings.

Use this when someone asks how their app's ranking for a keyword has changed over time in one store and country. Returns the app's rank on each date AppSkyline stored a search snapshot, newest first, up to 365 rows; tracked keywords are re-checked weekly. Not for today's live rank.

Use this when someone asks how popular a keyword is or which keyword ideas are worth targeting. Returns monthly Google web-search volume (a demand proxy, not app-store search counts), difficulty, CPC and competition for up to 50 terms in one country. Terms missing from the 30-day cache trigger a billable lookup. Not for rankings.

Use this when someone asks where their app ranks for a keyword right now in one store and country. Returns the app's live position, or not-ranked, after scanning the top 50 results by default and up to 200, and renders a rank card. Not for how a rank changed over time.

Use this when someone asks about a competitor's or any app's public store page, such as its rating, number of ratings, price, version or last update. Returns the live listing for one store id, with description and release notes cut to 600 characters. Not for your own app's synced text per language.

Use this when someone asks about their own app's listing text per language, such as the title, subtitle, keywords or release notes, or whether the latest version is still in review or approved. Returns the metadata AppSkyline last synced for each locale, with the version, its review state and the keyword field's length against Apple's 100-character limit; longer texts are cut to 600 characters. Not for a live competitor listing.

Use this when someone asks which apps they track in AppSkyline, or an app's id is needed. Returns each app's id, name, default locale and its App Store, Mac App Store, Google Play and Microsoft Store ids, up to 100 apps. Not for finding other apps in a store.

Use this when someone asks what users say about their Android app on Google Play, or about recent ratings and complaints. Returns reviews with stars, text cut to 300 characters, app version, device, language and whether the developer replied, up to 100 per page. Google Play only returns reviews from the last 7 days. Not for App Store reviews.

Use this when someone asks which keywords they track for an app, or before adding or deleting one. Returns each tracked keyword's id, search term, language, country and bid, up to 500 per call. Not for current rankings or search volume.

Use this when someone wants to open AppSkyline and browse their workspace interactively. Apps, connected stores and tracked keywords. Starts with up to 100 items. Not for changing data.

Use this when someone asks which apps show up for a search term, or who their competitors are for a keyword, on the App Store, Mac App Store, Google Play or Microsoft Store. Returns the live results in rank order with store id, title, rating and developer (10 by default, up to 200). Not for one app's own position.

Use this when someone wants a quick overview of one of the apps they track in AppSkyline. Returns an overview card with the app's connected stores, locales and up to 50 tracked keywords. Not for keyword rankings.

Use this when someone asks which keywords to put in their app's title, subtitle, keyword field or short description, or how to improve their store listing's ASO. Without appId it covers every app in its main market, so one call answers 'for each app'. Compares each listing (synced metadata, or the live public listing in that country) with the app's tracked keywords, their latest stored rank and cached Google demand, and returns drafts that already fit each store's limits, the coverage they reach, the top opportunities and issues. Pass appId, store and a proposed title, subtitle, keywords or shortDescription to check your own wording. Read-only; never changes a store listing.
