Quick answers
Where does the keyword popularity come from?
Ascope shows the popularity score that Apple itself reports for search terms in Apple Search Ads, on the same 5 to 100 scale. Scores refresh at most every five days to match Apple's update frequency. When Apple has no score for a term, Ascope shows an estimate marked with ~ so you know which is which.
Does Ascope support Google Play?
Yes. You can track Android apps from Google Play right next to your App Store apps, with daily rankings, popularity, difficulty, keyword suggestions, similar apps and install counts. Paste a Google Play link or package name to add an app.
Is there a free plan?
No, there is no free tier. Pro is $7.50 a month when billed yearly. If the service is wrong for you, email support within 14 days and you'll receive a full refund.
How does the license work?
After checkout you receive a license key by email. Paste it into Ascope and Pro activates immediately. One license is active on one Mac at a time, and you can deactivate it and move it to another Mac whenever you like.
Where is my data stored?
Your apps, keywords and ranking history live on your Mac. Ascope's servers only see the search terms and app IDs needed to look up rankings and popularity.
