A few tools can help with keyword data, but I would suggest not stopping at volume/difficulty. For App Store Optimization, the harder part is usually deciding which keywords your specific app can realistically rank for and how to turn that into title, subtitle, keyword field, and screenshot changes. I’m the founder of Appeak Pro, and we’re building a free ASO audit flow for this exact use case. You paste your App Store or Google Play URL, and it gives a practical optimization direction instead of only raw keyword numbers. It may be useful as a first pass before paying for a larger ASO platform.

For a new app with very low initial downloads, I would be careful about making decisions only from keyword volume and difficulty scores. Those scores can be useful, but they don’t tell you whether your app is actually strong enough to compete for that keyword yet. I would start with a simpler checklist: Does the title/subtitle clearly explain the core use case? Are you targeting long-tail keywords where the current ranking apps are not too established? Do the first 2 screenshots explain the value without needing to read the description? Are you comparing against apps with similar download/review strength, not only category leaders? Founder disclosure: I’m building Appeak.pro, a self-service ASO audit tool for exactly this problem: turning confusing ASO signals into specific recommendations for metadata, keywords, competitors, and screenshots. You can run a free audit and use it as a second opinion before changing your listing.
