Find the App Store KeywordsPeople Actually Type

On the App Store you get three places for search words: the name, the subtitle and a hidden keyword field. The name and subtitle each take 30 characters. The keyword field takes 100 bytes. That is a tight budget, so you need to know which words people really use before you spend it.

This tool starts with App Store search suggestions for your seed. It tells you which phrases are short enough for the name or subtitle. Then it pulls the words that keep coming up into a draft keyword field you can copy and edit.

App Store Suggestions

Phrases from App Store search for your seed, in the storefront country you choose.

Name and Subtitle Check

Every phrase is checked against the 30-character limit Apple sets for both.

Starter Keyword Field

Common words joined with commas and no spaces, kept inside 100 bytes.

Switch to Google Play

Run the same seed on Google Play in one click when you ship on both stores.

HOW IT WORKS

3 Steps to App Store Keywords

Go from an app idea to a name, a subtitle and a keyword field.

01

Describe the App in Two Words

"Sleep sounds" or "invoice maker" works better than a brand name. Pick the country your listing is for.

02

Pick Your Name and Subtitle Phrases

Choose two strong phrases marked Name or subtitle. One goes after your app name and one becomes your subtitle.

03

Edit the Keyword Field

Copy the starter field. Remove words that do not describe your app, then paste it into App Store Connect.
