We crawl every category page in the Shopify App Store daily and record where each app sits. You get your position, the month's movement, who passed you, and what they changed on the day they did it.

Illustrative data, real product layout.
No tracking code, no Google Analytics, no Partner API. Positions are observed, not estimated.
1 · Add your app
Paste your App Store URL. We already hold the category it sits in, the apps around it, and months of their history — there is no waiting period.
2 · We crawl daily
Every day we read every category page in the store and record the position of every app on it — yours and everyone above you — along with their review count.
3 · You get told
Movement lands in your inbox, in a weekly report, or in Slack and Discord — you choose what we send and how often.
If you came here looking for “where do I rank for subscription app”, here is the honest position, and it applies to every tool in this market, not just us.
Shopify's robots.txt disallows any URL carrying a q= parameter — which is exactly the App Store's search page. That rule has been there since at least mid-2025, and on 6 September 2026 Shopify began enforcing it. We stopped our keyword crawl that day and paused the feature rather than work around a rule we can read.
Any tool still reporting a competitor's keyword position is reading that same disallowed page. That is the whole reason we are telling you this instead of quietly showing you a number from last week.
When a merchant clicks a search result, Shopify appends the search term and the position they clicked from to your listing URL — and your own Google Analytics records all of it. That is your data, handed to you by Shopify, with no crawling involved. Connect it in listing analytics and you get the terms merchants actually searched, the position they saw, and which of those visits ended in an install. It only ever shows your own app — nobody can give you a rival's search rank honestly.
Keywords already tracked in your account stay visible with the last position we measured, dated 5 September 2026. If Shopify reopens the search page, this comes back — we check their robots.txt every day.
Most tools estimate placement from your own traffic, which means they need your Google Analytics and can only ever see apps you own. Our positions come from crawling the public category pages themselves — so it works from day one with zero setup, and covers every app in the store, including the ones above you. Pair it with competitor tracking to be told the morning one of them changes something.
Every BestAppify product reads from the same daily crawl, so they compound.
Rank tracking is on every plan, including free — add your app and it starts with the history we already hold.
