Manifest · App Store analytics for solo developers

Know which app
deserves your
next hour.

Downloads, proceeds, subscriptions, reviews, and release health across your portfolio. Manifest records Apple’s reports daily and makes the changes worth investigating easier to find — with gaps labeled and the math explained.

Manifest's portfolio overview: every tracked app in one list with week-over-week trends, computed highlights, and honest waiting-on-Apple states instead of invented zeros.

Illustrative data — a sample portfolio, not a real account.

From daily reports
to a useful
weekly review

Manifest complements App Store Connect with a daily record, a portfolio overview, and explainable calculations. Apple remains the source of truth; Manifest helps you review it consistently. Historical snapshot imports are not automatic, so the permanent record grows from the reports your account successfully syncs.

ManifestEvery app on one page

Every review.
Every storefront.

Localize your app and most of your reviews start landing in storefronts you never see — the App Store on your phone shows only your own country. Manifest keeps every written review from every storefront in one inbox, puts unanswered one- and two-star reviews first, and lets you reply without leaving the page.

It also records each storefront’s public rating daily — star-only ratings included — so “how many new ratings did Brazil give us this week?” is a number. Why you can’t see them all

Paste it into
your own AI

Manifest never calls an AI itself — every number on screen is arithmetic. But “Copy for AI” puts a plain-text export on your clipboard, ready to paste into whatever Claude, ChatGPT, or Codex session you already use, so it can reason about your actual numbers instead of guessing at general App Store advice.

What you paste
App Store Connect record for "Pixel Quest", exported from Manifest.
Covering 2026-06-27 to 2026-08-25 (60 days on record).

How to read this: every figure is a sum, ratio, or difference over
Apple's own reports; recurring estimates are labeled separately.
A line marked "unreported" means missing coverage, NOT zero.

## Week-over-week trend
- Downloads: 176 this week vs 106 last week (+66.0%)
- Impressions: 4,480 this week vs 5,320 last week (-15.8%)
- Tap-through rate: 5.9% this week vs 4.2% last week (+1.7 percentage points)

## Computed highlights
- [up] Downloads climbing: 176 this week vs 106 the week
  before (+66%).
- [notice] US drives most of your downloads: 73% of
  first-time downloads in this pull came from US (128 of 175).

## What to do with this
Based on the trend, the highlights, and the territory detail
above, what would you prioritize over the next few weeks to
grow downloads and revenue? Reference specific numbers from
this export, and treat any "pending" line as unknown, not zero.

Excerpt — the real export also includes report coverage and the full territory breakdown.

Pricing

7-day free trial on every plan

Add a payment method to start the trial. If you do nothing, billing begins automatically when it ends at the price below — cancel anytime before then and you will not be charged.

Indie$14/mo8UnlimitedYes

Both plans include the same trend engine and the same honest handling of Apple’s reporting gaps — Studio adds room for a larger portfolio.

What should you
actually track?

FAQ

Why does Manifest need my App Store Connect API key?

To pull the same analytics reports you'd see in App Store Connect. We recommend a dedicated key scoped to the narrow "Sales and Reports" role, not your Account Holder key. It's encrypted with AES-256-GCM before it's stored and only decrypted in memory while talking to Apple.

Do you use AI on my data?

No. Manifest computes sums, ratios, and differences from Apple's reports. Recurring revenue is explicitly labeled as an estimate based on paid subscriber counts, observed net proceeds, and billing periods; it is not a payout forecast. "Copy for AI" only copies text to your clipboard so you can paste it into an AI chat you already use; Manifest never sends your data anywhere itself.

Can Manifest read and reply to my App Store reviews?

Yes. Manifest pulls written reviews from every storefront — not just your own country's — along with your existing replies, and checks each storefront's public star rating daily, star-only ratings included. A key with the Sales role can read reviews. To post replies from Manifest, use a key with the Customer Support or Admin role; with any other key, Manifest lets you copy a reply and paste it in App Store Connect. Replies only ever post when you press Send.

What happens if I cancel or a payment fails?

Your account falls back to Ledger, an internal restricted plan: one tracked app, the trailing 90 days, no CSV export. Nothing is deleted — the full record is retained, and upgrading anytime restores access to everything already recorded.

Why do you need a payment method just to start a free trial?

So the trial continues without interruption if you decide to keep it — you will not be charged until the trial ends, and you can cancel anytime before then from Manage billing.

My app shows "waiting on Apple" — is that a bug?

No. Apple says initial ongoing reports normally arrive within 24–48 hours. Individual metrics can take longer or be absent because of reporting thresholds. Manifest shows that honestly as "waiting on Apple" rather than a zero, since a gap in Apple's reporting is not the same thing as no activity.

How many apps can I track?

Indie tracks up to 8 apps, Studio is unlimited. You can untrack an app you don't need right now and re-track it later at no cost — untracking just doesn't free a slot for a different app, so it can't be used to work around the limit.
