More than 1,000 apps/day flood the store so find the actual levers: search drives >82% of downloads, the keyword field is limited to 100 characters, the visible title is 30 characters and subtitle another 30, and the App Preview allows up to three videos. Pick reachable keywords (flight tracker needed ~40k US downloads to crack top 100), put high‑popularity terms into title/subtitle/keyword box, use screenshots with short captions and people to lift conversion, and monitor impressions, ranks and conversion continuously.
