When to use AppApex versus Appfigures

AppApex is better when…

  • ›You do not have time to explore dashboards — you want a weekly to-do list ranked by impact
  • ›You ship a subscription app and need conversion + retention + ASO + pricing + reviews in one place, not five tools
  • ›You want AI that prescribes specific actions ("ship this paywall variant"), not just charts
  • ›You use Superwall (Appfigures does not currently integrate)

Appfigures is better when…

  • ›You like building custom dashboards and reports tailored to your exact metrics
  • ›You need granular keyword rank tracking across many competitors
  • ›You want a free tier with no commitment
  • ›Your job is to explore and present data to a stakeholder, not to ship growth experiments

Use both when…

  • ›Use Appfigures for the deep data exploration and AppApex for the weekly action plan
  • ›You can wire both up — they read from the same App Store Connect API and do not conflict

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Appfigures has a free tier and paid plans from ~$10/month. AppApex starts at $39/month. The price difference reflects the difference in scope: Appfigures is a focused analytics tool; AppApex is five AI agents plus a weekly action plan.

No direct import is needed. Both tools read from the same source data (App Store Connect, RevenueCat). Connect AppApex separately and it backfills 90 days automatically.

Yes, but with a different goal. AppApex tracks keyword rankings inside the ASO Agent and uses them to prescribe specific keyword changes. Appfigures gives you broader keyword exploration tools.

AppApex integrates with Superwall. Appfigures does not currently. If your paywall data lives in Superwall, AppApex will see variant-level conversion that Appfigures cannot.

AppApex is built for solo indie devs who want decisions, not dashboards. Appfigures is excellent if you enjoy slicing data yourself. Pick based on whether you want to explore (Appfigures) or be told what to do (AppApex).
