CAPABILITIES

Six panels. One briefing.

Everything maps to a real panel in the app — the same signal, severity levels, and verdicts you'll read every morning.

CHANGE_LOG

CRITICAL

Listing-change detection. Title, subtitle, screenshots, price, release notes — every edit a rival ships is caught, diffed, and ranked by severity.

MISSION_SETUP

Operational in three steps.

No sign-up form between you and the first scan. Setup takes about a minute.

01

REGISTER_YOUR_APP

Search the App Store and lock in the app you're defending. It's stored in a local database on your device — no account created, anywhere.

02

ADD_RIVALS

Pick the competitors worth watching. Each rival gets its own change log, scorecard, and review-intel panel per country.

03

SCAN

Rival Radar pulls the public listing data, diffs it against the last snapshot, and briefs you on exactly what moved — with severity levels.

LOCAL_DATA

Nothing leaves the device.

Rival Radar is local-first by design. Snapshots, history, keywords, scores — all of it lives in an on-device database. There is no account, no login, no analytics SDK, and no server of ours to send anything to. The only network traffic is the same public App Store lookups your browser could make.

QUERY_LOG

Frequently asked.

Where does the data come from?

From the App Store itself. Rival Radar reads public listing data — titles, subtitles, screenshots, prices, release notes, search rankings, and public reviews — through Apple's public endpoints, directly from your device. Each scan is snapshotted locally, and the app diffs snapshots over time to build the change log and trends.

Is tracking rivals like this allowed?

Yes. Everything Rival Radar looks at is public metadata anyone can see by opening the App Store. There are no scraped private dashboards, no reverse-engineered analytics, no account impersonation. It's the same research you could do by hand every morning — the app just never forgets, and never misses a change.

Why is there no login?

Because there's nothing to log in to. Rival Radar is local-first: your tracked apps, snapshots, history, and keywords are stored in an on-device database, and there is no server-side copy of anything. No account also means no password, no email list, and no way for your competitive research to leak — even in a breach, because there's nothing to breach.

What does the free tier include?

A real, working radar: 1 app you own vs. 1 rival in 1 country, with full listing-change detection and severity levels, a change log showing the last 7 days, and a manual scan every 12 hours. Your data is retained for 30 days locally — older runs are kept view-locked rather than deleted, so if you upgrade later, the archive is already there.

What exactly does Pro unlock?

5 rivals per app, 5 countries, and 5 of your own apps, plus 90-day history with trend charts, the country gap map, keyword rank tracking with instant checks, rival review mining, one-tap batch scans, and JSON/CSV export of the full archive. Available monthly, yearly (half the monthly rate), or as a one-time lifetime purchase.
