The short version
What the choice actually turns on.
Only the rows where these two genuinely differ. Everything they answer the same way is left out, because it cannot decide anything.
- 01
Trying it. Applyra: free plan. GrowASO: trial. A permanent free plan and a trial that expires are not the same offer.
- 02
Scripting and AI access. Applyra: mcp. GrowASO: none.
- 03
Price. Applyra starts free; GrowASO starts at $149 a year on Premium, Professional $199.
In its favour
What Applyra does well.
- A genuinely permanent free plan, not a trial that expires. One app and five keywords is enough to watch a single launch.
- Google Play alongside the App Store, which rules ASO Studio out entirely for an Android developer.
- An MCP server, so this is not a choice between agent access and no agent access.
- Nothing to install and nothing tied to one machine: it runs in a browser on any operating system.
In its favour
What GrowASO does well.
- Annual billing on both tiers, so there is no monthly meter running and no surprise at renewal.
- Google Play alongside the App Store, on the same plan.
- A trial that does not ask for a card.
- Browser delivery, which works on any operating system.
Ours, for the record
There is a third option.
Both cover Google Play, which ASO Studio does not. If your app is iOS only, $59/yr a year covers unlimited apps and keywords on a native Mac app, and you can score your listing free first.
