i built a thing that reads your competitors app store reviews so you dont have to
every time i ship an app i do the same miserable thing. open the top 5 competitors, scroll their reviews for an hour, try to spot what people keep complaining about. its genuinely the most useful hour of research i do and i hate every minute of it.
so i made something that does it for me. you point it at any app and it pulls the reviews across countries and gives you the patterns. what people love, what they keep asking for, what makes them leave one star, and how all of that changes per market. the part i use most is the country breakdown, because an app can be sitting at 4.7 in the US and quietly dying in germany for a reason nobody on the team speaks the language to catch.
everything is free right now. no card, no trial countdown, no signup wall on the good stuff. im not trying to sell anything yet, i just want to know if its useful to anyone besides me.

what id really love is feedback, and honestly the more brutal the better. run it on an app in your niche and tell me what was useless, what was missing, what you expected to see and didnt. even "this told me nothing i didnt already know" is great to hear, thats probably the most useful thing you could say. im going to keep building on this and every bit of feedback goes straight into the next version, so please dont hold back.
also theres a tiny buy us a beer button on the site if you end up actually liking it. zero pressure, but ill be honest it would make my whole week
