Their ratings tell a story. Read it first.

App store ratings drop when competitors ship bugs. Reviews spike when they launch features. Install counts reveal market traction. SENSER tracks it all across iOS and Android — so you know exactly where they're winning and where they're vulnerable.

AI INSIGHT
Rating alert: Competitor D has dropped 0.3 stars in 30 days — crash-related reviews spiked after their v2.1 update. Meanwhile, Competitor A's iOS rating hit an all-time high (4.7) driven by positive switching stories. Opportunity: D's displaced users are actively looking for alternatives. Your Android app (4.5, 5M+ installs) is well-positioned — address the UI complaints in recent reviews to convert switchers.

Track every app. Every rating. Every review.

SENSER monitors iOS App Store and Google Play Store for every competitor you care about. Ratings, reviews, versions, and installs — all in one view.

Step 01

Add competitor apps

Enter app names or store URLs. SENSER finds and tracks both iOS and Android versions automatically — no App Store Connect or Play Console access needed.

Step 02

Monitor ratings & installs

See ratings, review counts, version history, and install numbers for every tracked app. Leaderboard shows where you rank against the competition.

Step 03

Track reviews & sentiment

Recent reviews are pulled and sentiment-analyzed automatically. Filter by competitor, rating, or sentiment to find the signal in the noise.

Step 04

Spot trends & opportunities

AI detects rating drops, review spikes, and version-related issues. Get alerts when competitors stumble and insights on where you can capitalize.

The app stores are a goldmine of competitive intel

Every rating change, every review, every version update tells you something about a competitor's product health. Most teams ignore this data. You won't.

LEADERBOARD

Know where you rank — and why

See exactly where your app sits against every competitor across iOS and Android. Rating, review volume, and install counts in one ranked view. No guessing about market position.

REVIEW INTEL

Read what their users say about them

Competitor reviews are unfiltered product feedback. Find complaints about features you already have, praise for things you should build, and frustrations that make users ready to switch.

DROP ALERTS

Catch competitors when they stumble

A rating drop after a bad update is a window of opportunity. SENSER detects crashes, regressions, and review spikes — so you can position your app as the stable alternative.

VERSION TRACKING

See what they shipped — and when

Version history across every competitor app. Track release cadence, spot feature launches, and correlate updates with rating changes to understand what's working for them.

Turn app store data into product and marketing wins

App store metrics aren't just vanity numbers. They're real-time feedback on your competitive position — updated daily by actual users.

  • 01Identify competitor weaknesses from negative review patterns
  • 02Time marketing pushes around competitor rating drops
  • 03Mine competitor reviews for feature ideas and messaging angles
  • 04Track if competitor updates improve or hurt their ratings
  • 05Benchmark your app health against the full competitive set
Scenario: Competitor Stumble

"Their app crashed after an update and we didn't run a single ad while their users were searching for alternatives."

SENSER flags rating drops and crash-related review spikes within hours. You'd have time to spin up targeted campaigns before the competitor patches and recovers.

Scenario: Feature Gap Discovery

"We spent 3 months building a feature, then learned competitors already had it — and their users hated the implementation."

Mine competitor reviews before you build. Find the specific complaints about existing implementations, then build yours better and market the difference.

Scenario: Board Reporting

"Our investors wanted competitive app store benchmarks. We manually pulled data from 10 apps across 2 platforms."

Export a complete competitive benchmark — ratings, reviews, installs, and trends — in one click. Updated automatically, not manually assembled.

Part of the SENSER Competitive Intelligence suite

App store monitoring works alongside five other signal streams — so you have a single command center for your entire competitive environment.
