With the App Store achieving over 6.5 1000000000 downloads, and the sort of apps achievement a quarter million, what are whatever ordinary text grouping have utilised to evaluate apps? Marco Arment definite to figure this out, and his results should be worth whatever superior advice for iOS developers.

Arment created a script to dissect US App Store customer review for the crowning 100 app from every category. The determine of this was to dissect the most ordinary text utilised when grouping were judgement the poorest (1-star) and prizewinning (5-star) apps. Words utilised in 3-star reviews were excluded. Here are his results:

These are the crowning text by rating, with degressive frequency:

★★★★★: awesome, worth, thanks, amazing, simple, perfect, price, everything, ever, must, ipod, before, found, store, never, recommend, done, take, always, touch

★☆☆☆☆: waste, money, crashes, tried, useless, nothing, paid, open, deleted, downloaded, didn’t, says, stupid, anything, actually, account, bought, apple, already

Bold text are adjectives or likely to be utilised as adjectives in context.

Marco goes on to hold the following:

  • awesome apps are liked; ones that break are dislikable (not surprising)
  • “simple” as digit of the crowning positive text utilised indicates what grouping expect from the iOS platform
  • price is a Brobdingnagian factor in both positive and perverse reviews. Are grouping meet too affordable to clear $1.99 for an app, but are selection to clear $5 for a espresso (and the outlay of upgrading element every year)?
  • The progressive and unfair usage of the articulate “useless” in perverse reviews. Hey, at small App Store reviewers haven’t reached the scary take of YouTube commenters– the scariest grouping on the planet.

So in a nutshell, here’s what you need to do to create that “big hit” in the App Store: attain an app that is awesome, awful and simple to use and attain the user see it is worth the awful $0.99 price. The articulate “perfect” should become to nous in describing your app.
