Metadata

The set of textual fields in a store listing, such as title, subtitle, description, or keyword list.

What to understand

Metadata helps store algorithms understand the app’s positioning and associate it with specific queries.

Optimizing metadata depends on semantic relevance, marketing clarity, and its ability to reflect the real product use case.

A well-structured listing usually combines keyword targeting with a product promise that is instantly readable.
