CheckASO Review: The Ultimate ASO Tool to Skyrocket Your App Rankings

Want to dominate the app stores? Discover how CheckASO.io—the powerful ASO tool Steve P. Young swears by—can boost your keyword rankings, track competitors, and maximize organic downloads—even if you’re a beginner!

In this hands-on review, we’ll break down CheckASO’s best free & paid features, plus actionable ASO strategies you can use today.

Why CheckASO? A Game-Changer for App Marketers

Most ASO tools give vague “scores” without real insights. CheckASO.io stands out by offering:
✅ Free ASO Index – Get instant optimization scores
✅ Competitor Keyword Tracking – Spy on top apps like Calm & Headspace
✅ Localized Keyword Research – Optimize for global markets
✅ Visual Performance Dashboards – See rankings, search volume & trends

Best part? You can start with a 7-day free trial to test all premium features!

Key Features Breakdown: How to Use CheckASO Like a Pro

1. Free ASO Index: Your Instant Optimization Report Card

CheckASO’s free ASO Index grades your app’s optimization level (0-10) across:

  • Title (Are you using high-traffic keywords?)

  • Subtitle/Short Description (Are key terms prioritized?)

  • Keyword Field (iOS) / Long Description (Google Play)

Example: Calm scores 7.6 in Health & Fitness—but could improve by adding “Meditation & Sleep” to its title!

💡 Pro Tip: Use this free report to convince your team (or boss) why ASO matters!

2. Competitor Keyword Analysis (Paid Feature)

See exactly which keywords rivals rank for—and where you overlap.

Steve’s Insight:

*”Headspace shares 241 top-ranking keywords with Calm. If you’re in meditation, these are the terms you MUST target!”*

🔍 Actionable Strategy:

  • Steal winning keywords from top competitors

  • Fill gaps where you’re missing high-volume terms

3. Localized Keyword Tracking (Game-Changer for Global Apps!)

Most ASO tools only track US rankings. CheckASO shows performance by country:

🌎 Example: Calm ranks #1 for “Meditation” in Canada but #6 in France. Why? Their French localization needs work!

How to Use This:

  1. Go to Ranks > Select Countries (e.g., France, Germany)

  2. Translate keywords (built-in tool!)

  3. Update your localized app titles/descriptions

🚀 Result: Higher rankings in untapped markets!

4. ASO Editor: Optimize Before You Publish (Paid Feature)

Problem: Most devs guess which keywords work. CheckASO’s Editor highlights:

  • Which keywords you’re actually ranking for

  • Missing high-traffic terms

📌 Pro Tip: Paste your title, subtitle & description into the editor to see:
✔ Keyword density
✔ Search volume per term
✔ Competitor comparisons

Who Should Use CheckASO?

✔ Indie Developers – Free ASO Index is a must for beginners
✔ ASO Agencies – Client reports made easy
✔ App Growth Teams – Data-driven keyword strategies

Final Verdict: Is CheckASO Worth It?

👍 Pros:

  • Free ASO Index (rare in premium tools!)

  • Best-in-class localization features

  • Clear, actionable data (no vague “scores”)

👎 Cons:

  • No direct App Store submission (yet)

  • Advanced features require paid plan

💡 Steve’s Recommendation:

*”Start with the free ASO Index, then use the 7-day trial to test premium features. If you’re serious about ASO, it’s a no-brainer.”*
