App Store Subtitle
Along with the title and icon, the subtitle of your app is visible to all App Store users, regardless of where your product appears (top charts, collections, or search results). Understanding the purpose and function of a subtitle is crucial when it comes to promoting your service.
What Is App Store Subtitle?
An app subtitle is a short caption positioned beneath your product's name, adjacent to the icon. This concise phrase, limited to 30 characters, should convey the essence of your game or app and assist users in making a choice, as it appears in all the locations where your item can be found.
By crafting a compelling caption, you'll encourage visitors to select your product from a range of similar offerings.
When it comes to writing the text, it's important to consider the use of relevant keywords. The subtitle holds the second most significant position and carries weight with ranking algorithms.
The App Store analyzes your title, keyword field, and subtitle to generate search results and top charts. By incorporating the right keywords and phrases, you'll help users discover your app more quickly when they search for relevant queries. This is why creating effective subtitles in ASO receives significant attention.
When writing it, use the special Asolytics’ tool, Metadata Keywords. It pulls in popular keywords used by your competitors in their metadata.
Subtitles are primarily important for ranking algorithms. While they have a slightly smaller influence on conversion compared to visual elements like videos and screenshots, they still hold a certain weight.
Often, users make installation decisions after a brief scan of the app page without delving into the detailed description. Therefore, it would be a mistake to underestimate the importance of a subtitle as a key element of your optimization efforts.
