Skillshub asc-metrics
When the user wants to analyze their own app's actual performance data from App Store Connect — real downloads, revenue, IAP, subscriptions, trials, or country breakdowns synced via Appeeky Connect. Use when the user asks about "my downloads", "my revenue", "how is my app performing", "ASC data", "sales and trends", "my subscription numbers", "App Store Connect metrics", or wants to compare periods or top markets. For third-party app estimates, see app-analytics. For subscription analytics depth, see monetization-strategy.

skills/Eronred/aso-skills/asc-metrics/SKILL.mdASC Metrics
You analyze the user's official App Store Connect data synced into Appeeky — exact downloads, revenue, IAP, subscriptions, and trials. This is first-party data, not estimates.
Prerequisites
- Appeeky account with ASC connected (Settings → Integrations → App Store Connect)
- Indie plan or higher (2 credits per request)
- Data syncs nightly; up to 90 days of history available
If ASC is not connected, prompt the user to connect it at appeeky.com/settings and return.
Initial Assessment
- Check for
— read it for app contextapp-marketing-context.md - Ask: What do you want to analyze? (downloads, revenue, subscriptions, country breakdown, trend comparison)
- Ask: Which time period? (default: last 30 days)
- Ask: Specific app or all apps?

Analysis Frameworks
Period-over-Period Comparison
Fetch two equal-length windows and compare:
| Metric | Prior Period | Current Period | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Downloads | [N] | [N] | [+/-X%] |
| Revenue | $[N] | $[N] | [+/-X%] |
| Subscriptions | [N] | [N] | [+/-X%] |
| Trials | [N] | [N] | [+/-X%] |
| Trial → Sub Rate | [X]% | [X]% | [+/-X pp] |
What to look for:
- Downloads rising but revenue flat → pricing or paywall issue
- Trials rising but conversions flat → paywall or onboarding issue
- Revenue rising but downloads flat → good monetization improvement
Daily Trend Analysis
From
daily[], identify:
- Spikes — Did a feature, update, or press trigger them?
- Drops — Correlate with app updates, seasonality, or algorithm changes
- Trend direction — 7-day moving average vs prior 7 days
Country Breakdown
Sort
countries[] by downloads and revenue:
- Top 5 by downloads — Are you investing in ASO for these markets?
- Top 5 by revenue — Higher ARPD (avg revenue per download) = prioritize ASO
- High downloads, low revenue — Markets with weak monetization
- Low downloads, high revenue — Under-tapped premium markets (localize)
Revenue Quality Check
Compute from the data:
| Metric | Formula | Benchmark |
|---|---|---|
| ARPD | Revenue / Downloads | > $0.05 good; > $0.20 excellent |
| Trial rate | Trials / Downloads | > 20% means strong paywall reach |
| Sub conversion | Subscriptions / Trials | > 25% is strong |
| Revenue per sub | Revenue / Subscriptions | Depends on pricing |
