The App Store turned into a queryable dataset rather than a dashboard.

2 listed here, and 1 more that also belong in it.

## Tools

### Applora

Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/applora
Summary: The whole App Store as a live database, free on the web and over MCP.
Price: Free, Pro $49/mo ($39/mo yearly)
Watch for: Store records come from public App Store reviews. A store only appears if it has publicly reviewed an app. It is not install data, and they say so plainly.

### HeyApps

Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/heyapps
Summary: A free explorer of the whole App Store: apps, full review text, rankings and the merchants who wrote the reviews.
Price: Free
Watch for: No company or person is named anywhere on the site, and it has no terms of use, no privacy policy and no pricing page. It hands out merchant contact emails it found by itself, so anyone writing to them should check the consent rules first. It keeps reviews that Shopify took down. It is free, and nothing on the site says how it pays for itself.

### BestAppify

Page: https://watchfor.tools/tools/bestappify
Listed under: App Store ASO (https://watchfor.tools/categories/aso), and also in this category
Summary: The App Store data your agent can act on, not just read.
Price: Free plan available
Watch for: Revenue analytics are rebuilt from subscription charge events. Its own docs note that a null ranking means not captured that day, not unranked.
