There's now a new metadata on ASC called App Tags. It's automatically assigned to your app by Apple. You can't edit it, but you can opt out of specific tags if you don't want them.
asc cli is fantastic (and rudrank is a legend!). Especially when you want to get specific tasks done quickly and without much guidance from yourself.
AscBuddy has a custom user interface on App Store Connect so you can monitor analytics, app reviews, competitors, etc in addition to the tools that help you manage and automate your App Store listing.
For localization in particular, AscBuddy has features like letting you specify protected Brand words and phrases that should not be translated. And a visual Matrix to let you easily see, modify, export all fields in all languages for individual tweaks.
Paul's results are a great example of what's possible when you consistently improve your App Store listing and localize for a global audience.
With the help of AscBuddy, it has never been easier 👊
AscBuddy is my new favorite Apple developer tool.

Auto-draft, not fire-and-forget. AscBuddy creates the missing listing locales and drafts the fields with protected terms + App Store limits handled, but I’d still native-review CJK / important markets before submission, especially keywords and subtitle. The goal is less blank-field/copy-paste work, not skipping judgment. There is also the Localization-Matrix tool that lets you edit easily (see attached screenshot)
Incredible. 🚀🤯
Localizing your App Store listing for every supported language used to take days/weeks and a translation services budget.
Now it's free and takes less than 5 minutes.
AscBuddy's Auto-Localization tool will handle it all for you.
Woah! 277 downloads!
HUGE day for my app!
That's exciting. No idea why ... but it got a ton of impressions yesterday, and way more downloads.
Looks like localizing with @AscBuddy might have been the lift I needed.
@DavidPrenticeJr Yep, you can use the AscBuddy browser extension in a Chrome browser on Windows.
As far as creating Apps themselves on Windows, that is more difficult without a Mac but more options are available now than ever.
More Languages = More Keywords = More Opportunities.
Auto-localization is just one of many free tools offered by AscBuddy built to help devs ship faster and grow their apps.
I localized my Mac App Store page into 46 languages in 4 minutes 33 seconds.
- My app ranks for 51 keywords (top 10)
- Downloads are up 88% from the previous 30 days
- 141 downloads this month

HookSpark reached 50 downloads. 🎉
Amid the low reach, $0 revenue, and all the other indie builder struggles, this genuinely made me happy.
Thank you everyone for the support. I’ll keep working to make HookSpark even better from here. ❤️
Special thanks to @AscBuddy for the milestone card! 🙌
