What it means

ASO stands for app store optimization. It means improving how an app is presented and discovered within an app store. This includes thinking about the language people use to look for an app and whether its listing clearly explains what it does. App-store research is separate from research into ordinary website search results.

An example

Someone looking for a walking-route app may search for hiking planner rather than the app’s name. Exploring that phrase in the relevant store can help you understand what similar apps promise and what a clear description should explain.

How this helps you in Kwordia

Use Kwordia’s App Store Optimization page for discovery searches or information about a particular app. Select iOS or Android before entering the identifier. The current page uses the US market, so interpret its results within that scope rather than assuming they describe every country.
