Free ASO keyword tool
A free ASO keyword tool for the App Store
Kivho lets you research App Store keywords for free: how hard each keyword is to rank for, how much demand it has, which apps rank today, and related keywords worth targeting. No card and no time limit.
What the free plan includes
- 15 keywords researched a day
- 10 keyword ideas per keyword
- 1 tracked app, 10 keywords each
- 3 optimizer runs a day, 1 option each
- Keyword Gap with 1 competitor
- 15 app lookups a day
Every tool is on the free plan, including Keyword Gap and the AI Metadata Optimizer. Paid plans only raise the limits.
What you see for every keyword
- Keyword difficulty from 0 to 100, with the reasons behind it: how strong the top-ranking apps are and how many target the keyword by name.
- Demand score, an estimate of search demand you can compare across keywords.
- The top 10 apps ranking for the keyword, with ratings, review counts and chart positions.
- Keyword ideas: related keywords ranked by how closely they match yours, including new angles that word-matching tools miss.
How to research App Store keywords in three steps
- Search a keyword that describes your app, like “habit tracker”, and pick your country.
- Check the difficulty and the apps in the top 10. If they're much bigger than yours, look at the keyword ideas for easier, more specific phrases.
- Shortlist the keywords with good demand and a difficulty you can beat, then let the Metadata Optimizer fit them into your title, subtitle and keyword field.
When to upgrade
The free plan suits one app and a few keyword searches a day. If you research more keywords, track several apps or compare against more competitors, paid plans start at $7 a month. See pricing or start free.
Frequently asked questions
- Is the ASO keyword tool really free?
- Yes. The Free plan costs nothing and has no time limit. It includes 15 keyword searches a day, which reset at midnight UTC. You only pay if you choose a paid plan for higher limits.
- Do I need a credit card?
- No. Sign up with your email or Google account and start researching straight away.
- Which App Stores does it cover?
- The Apple App Store in United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, India, Germany, France and Japan. You can switch country on any keyword.
- Does it show search volume?
- The App Store doesn't publish search volume, so no tool can show the real number. Kivho gives every keyword a demand score from 0 to 100 so you can compare keywords against each other.
