What you get

Follow by link, name or package

Paste a Google Play link or a package name such as com.example.app, or search by name. A switch in the follow dialog sets the store a name is looked up in.

Keyword ranks in the top 30

Google Play returns 30 results for a search. Positions are read daily to 30, with the same changes, best rank and history as on the App Store.

Top charts

Top free, top paid and top grossing, overall and in the app’s category, to position 200, every day.

Ratings and installs

Rating, number of ratings, public installs, version and price, saved daily with history. For your own apps, Play Console’s statistics add installs, visitors and conversion.

Reviews with replies

Recent reviews in the language Google Play shows them in, each with the developer’s reply.

Keyword research

Score a term for Google Play, see the top apps with their installs and Google Play’s suggestions, and run bulk research there.

Good to know

Where the data comes from

Google publishes no API for store data. asorocket reads the data endpoint Google Play’s own website uses, at 20 requests a minute and without cookies. No web pages are parsed. It is unofficial, as Apple’s endpoints are, and Google can change it; asorocket then reports the data as unreadable instead of saving something wrong.

What stays App Store only

Apple’s top search terms, Apple Ads, the localization planner and Fill keyword field cover App Store apps. Installs and conversion for your own Google Play apps come from Play Console’s statistics.

Limits worth knowing

A rank below 30 can’t be seen. Google Play is read in one language per country, the first its store shows there, and countries where Google Play isn’t available aren’t marked: following an app there finds nothing.

Your plan

Google Play apps and keywords count toward the same plan limits as App Store ones.
