Mobile Tools Directory
I’ve figured it might be a good idea to collect handy mobile tools and services for mobile research and development (since I’ve been asked about it many times).
Hopefully, you will find it useful. If you have some recommendations, let me know X: @filippkowalski.
ASO
| Name | Comment |
| ASO by 2stable | Handy for research and App Store Browsing in multiple countries at once, but recently Apple changed endpoints and it temporarily doesn’t work. |
| ASO.dev | Quite a powerful tool with many features, but they need to work on their UI/UX still. |
| Astro | Overall, great and affordable tool for simple keyword tracking. I don’t like that it only refreshes keywords every 24 hours, does it locally, and requires your own Apple key to run. Even though, I haven’t seen anything cheaper on the market |
| ASOSuite | Still in beta, but it’s a great tool that offers a lot for a low price. More features than Astro and works server-side, but has a keyword limit. |
| AppFigures | |
| AppTweak | |
| AppMagic.rocks | |
| SensorTower | |
| Data.AI | |
| GrowASO | |
| ASOBeast | |
| AppFollow | App Reputation management platform. |
Research
| Name | Comment |
| Fnd.io | Handy App Store browser. Sometimes useful for research. |
| ReadReviews.dev | A handy tool to easily access any app reviews on the App Store. (disclaimer: I built this) |
Payments
| Name | Comment |
| RevenueCat.com | Probably I don’t need to introduce them. Useful to manage subscriptions. If you have only one-time payments you probably don't need it |
| Adapty.io | RevenueCat competition, I don’t know much about them. |
Localization
| Name | Comment |
| Auto Localize | iOS only. Auto-translate Localizable.strings for multiple languages in Xcode using Google Translate, DeepL, or OpenAI. |
| ARB Localization | Flutter only. Speed Up Flutter App Localization With AI. |
| TranslateKitApp | iOS only localization |
UI
| Name | Comment |
| Figma | |
| Picasso | My go-to tool for screenshots is Figma, but you might find this tool useful. |
| Shots.so | My go-to tool for screenshots is Figma, but you might find this tool useful. |
A/B Testing & App Improvement
| Name | Comment |
| SuperWall.com | Allows to AB test paywalls more easily. |
| International Pricing Calculator | For a moment I wanted to build a tool like this by myself, but this one works so well that I don’t have to. It’s a tool that can help you localize your prices to support price parity. |
| Apple Search Ads Optimization tool | |
| Paywall Screens | Paywalls database |
Uncategorized
| Name | Comment |
| Warp.dev | My go-to replacement for system Terminal. I love it and I recommend it to everyone. It’s free for basic usage (which is enough). |
| EmergeTools.com | “Emerge Tools is a suite of revolutionary products designed to supercharge mobile apps and the teams that build them.”. I haven’t personally used this tool yet, but it looks like something worth checking out. |
| Expo and React Boilerplate |
Services
Those are not tools, but services that I’ve seen on Twitter and I think you might find them useful.
