Is your member app's rating lying to you?
See what members are really telling the App Store about your app, gym, studio or fitness brand, and how you stack up against anyone you choose. Live data, two minutes.
The gap this tool measures. Example numbers.
The comparison
"Recent" is the average of each app's newest written reviews (up to 50, Australian App Store). A big lifetime-vs-recent gap means the star rating hasn't caught up with what members currently experience, in either direction.
Written reviews per month
What reviews mention (your app)
Click any theme to read the reviews behind its numbers. Your app's newest written reviews, sorted into themes. The two columns are separate counts: how many reviews mention the theme positively, and how many negatively. Sentiment comes from the star rating; three-star reviews are classified by wording. Competitors are in the comparison below.

Reply to these first ·
These are your app's most recent negative reviews. Apple lets developers reply publicly, and prospects read those replies. An answered one-star reads completely differently to the next member who finds it. Apple doesn't publicly show which reviews already have a reply, so check these against App Store Connect before answering.

Your App Store listing
Feature signals read from each app's public description: what a prospective member (and the App Store's search engine) can see each app promises. A dash doesn't mean the feature is missing from the app; it means the listing never mentions it. Screenshot counts come from Apple's public API, which can lag the live store page. Verify against your listing before acting.
