SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires requests, nltk, pytrends, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the manual guesswork and expensive third-party tool costs associated with improving app visibility and conversion in the App Store and Google Play. It solves core pain points including low search rankings, poor install conversion from listing pages, and costly store rejections due to non-compliant metadata.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Keyword Research & Validation: Identify high-intent, low-competition keywords using free public APIs (iTunes Search, Google Suggest) with built-in guards against function-mismatch terms, transliteration traps, and cross-field keyword overlap that waste limited character budget.
  • Metadata Auditing & Optimization: Run deterministic checks for character limit compliance, cross-locale keyword duplication, and store policy violations, with actionable fixes to maximize indexed ranking surface and avoid rejection.
  • Conversion & Compliance Guidance: Get best practices for screenshot/icon design, A/B testing, and localization strategy, plus pre-submission compliance checks for banned words, competitor references, and platform-specific disclosure requirements. Use case example: For a meditation app launching in Japan, this Skill can validate Japanese keyword candidates against local search behavior, flag transliteration trap words like レトロ (retro) that have near-zero local search volume, and audit your metadata for cross-field overlap before submission.

Quick Start

Use the app-store-optimization skill to audit my iOS app's current App Store metadata and generate a prioritized action plan to improve my keyword rankings and install conversion.

FAQPage Schema
How do I do app store optimization for iOS and Google Play without expensive tools?

App store optimization for iOS and Google Play can be done using free public APIs like iTunes Search and Google Suggest to identify high-intent, low-competition keywords, validate search behavior, and eliminate manual guesswork from improving app discoverability.

What is metadata compliance auditing for app store listings?

Metadata compliance auditing runs deterministic checks for character limit compliance, cross-locale keyword duplication, and store policy violations to maximize indexed ranking surface and avoid costly store rejection from non-compliant metadata.

Can I validate keywords for multi-locale localization strategy without hitting transliteration traps?

Yes, keyword research validates multi-locale localization strategy by flagging transliteration trap words with near-zero local search volume and auditing cross-field keyword overlap that wastes limited character budget before app submission.

Does this ASO workflow support live updates via the App Store Connect API?

Yes, the ASO workflow includes App Store Connect API workflows for live updates, allowing you to push metadata changes directly and maintain sustainable organic install growth without manual submission processes.

Why does my app store listing get rejected for non-compliant metadata?

App store listings get rejected due to non-compliant metadata containing banned words, competitor references, or missing platform-specific disclosures, which pre-submission compliance checks detect and provide actionable fixes for.
