Hi Product Hunt community π
I'm Matteo, the developer behind Astro.
In April 2022 I was looking for an effective way to promote my apps on the app store and searching online I first came across the term App Store Optimization (ASO).
From that moment I started studying any information on this topic and actively searching for a tool that would allow me to perform keyword searches for my apps.
Unfortunately, on the market I did not find anything that was right for me, all the tools dedicated to ASO had 2 problems:
1) They were complicated
2) They were expensive for an independent developer.
Therefore, I decided to start working on my own App Store Optimization software that would allow me to monitor an unlimited number of apps and keywords and have a simple interface.
About 7 months later I released the first version of Astro, since that day I have continued to listen to user feedback trying to provide the best user experience when doing keywords research.
If you are interested in trying Astro you can download it for free and also unlock the premium version with a 20% discount on the first year subscription by using this code: M1MDCWMQ
Thank you! π π
Congrats on the launch, @matteo_spada! My co-founder has been telling me about your ASO app. Iβm excited that Astro includes rankings for Mac, which is something Apptweak doesnβt even have. Weβve been on the lookout for an alternative ASO tool for a while, so looking forward to giving Astro a try!
I have been using Astro for my keyword research for the last couple of months, and it's a fantastic app. Also Matteo is a very approachable and all around good fellow. You should try this!
just tried this out and it worked great! Easy to find the app, snappy UI and easy to switch between countries or even see keywords across All regions - which was very cool & intuitive to swap between.
Will defo keep this in my toolbelt and use for ASO in the future!
@saifcodes Hi Saif I am happy with this comment because this is exactly what I have been working on, I kept out all the superfluous to provide a super simple user experience β€οΈ
Amazing product to gauge demand and competition on the App Store. This allows me to create discipline and manage expectations during my app idea selection phase. Well done @matteo_spada !
The app is undoubtedly helpful. I used it before the ProductHunt launch!
Also, I recommend you to follow Matteo on Twitter to read much more of his advice for ASO π
when I started app development I didn't know anything about ASO. Astro changed my app marketing game. using Astro I can track keywords and really understand what keywords are performing well or not. this was the problem I had previously with ASO which Astro solved. the aesthetic of Astro is very clean and easy to understand.
Astro's a best-in-class tool, allowing developers optimize their ASO score. Nothing comes close to how useful it (& Matteo) has been. Give it a shot, I promise you'll like it!
@matteo_spada What was the single hardest thing to work thus far, for Astro!? π
