Your app’s ranking in Apple App Store and Google Play depends on a number of factors. There’s the app listing with all the metadata, screenshots, video, reviews and some important metrics like downloads and engagement. Now, downloads are easy to measure. But measuring engagement is not that easy because you need to calculate the number of active app users each month and how much time they spend using the app on average. And that’s quite hard to measure without the right tools. So, let’s have a look at top 10 ASO tools for 2017.
