The 2 things that matter

Ranked by consequence, not by effort. A blocker stops the listing publishing; a quick win is the cheapest remaining move.

Warning
Only 1 ratings
Prompt at a moment of success using SKStoreReviewController on iOS (max 3 prompts per 365 days) or the In-App Review API on Play. Volume matters as much as average.
Why it mattersVolume counts as much as the average: a 4.9 from eleven people reads as untested next to a 4.5 from thousands.

Warning
Social proof is thin

With this few ratings the listing has to convert on copy and visuals alone. That raises the weight of screenshots and the first three description lines.
Why it mattersWith this few ratings, the screenshots and the first three description lines are carrying the whole install decision.

Field by field against the other store

Matched on the shared reverse-DNS identifier, so this is the same app rather than a similarly named one.

Matched by identifier: app.colorsort.zen

Description length & indexing
App Store3190/4000 chars

Both descriptions are long enough. Only the Play one earns ranking — keep its keyword repetition readable.

Note
6 screenshots — the store allows 10
6/10
Add 4 more. They cost nothing and give you more room to answer objections after the first three.
Why it mattersOnly the first three appear in search results; the rest work on the product page. Unused slots are conversion surface left on the table.
Note
Preview video presence could not be read
Apple's public API does not expose it. If you have no preview video, that is usually the largest single conversion gain available on iOS.
Why it mattersAbsent from the data is not absent from the listing — this one has to be checked by hand in App Store Connect.
Note
Screenshot caption text not assessed
Apple has indexed screenshot captions since June 2025, so the words on your screenshots are ranking surface. Reading them means reading the images, which this check does not do.
Why it mattersApple indexes the text drawn on screenshots, and reading it means reading the images rather than the listing markup. This check does not do that.

What this check could not see

Promotional text — not exposed publicly; check App Store Connect.
Keyword field — hidden by design. Larko infers waste from title/subtitle overlap.
Whether the App Store listing links a privacy policy — Apple's APIs do not return it, so this is unchecked on iOS. Play listings are checked.
Your in-app purchase display names — Apple indexes them at 35 characters each, and neither the Search nor the Lookup API returns them. Check them in App Store Connect.
In-app event short descriptions — indexed at 50 characters, and absent from Apple's APIs. An event running now is search surface we cannot see.
Screenshot caption text — requires reading the images, not the listing markup.
Keyword search volume and exact rankings — needs the Apple Search Ads API or a live rank crawl, not a single listing fetch.

Early Access · Studio Beta

Larko Studio — the rewrite

Title, subtitle, the byte-counted Apple keyword field, both descriptions and screenshot captions, per store and per locale. Every variant re-measured against the limits after it is written, so nothing over-length ever reaches you.

Built and not switched on. We are finishing the free surfaces first, and we would rather find out whether anyone wants this than assume it.

Early Access · Studio Beta

The written analysis

The verdict, the brand-tier reasoning, and the three things to fix first in priority order rather than forty findings of equal weight. The numbers stay computed — the analysis explains and prioritises them, it never recounts them.

Built and not switched on. It costs money per run, which is the one thing this stage is designed not to spend yet.

Early Access · Studio Beta

Larko Watch — did the change work

Daily rank observation per keyword, per store, per country, joined to the history of your metadata. So a subtitle you changed on Tuesday ties to what happened to the rank, instead of to a hunch.

The history it needs is already accruing daily — it cannot be backfilled later, so it starts before the feature does. The feature itself is further out than Studio.
