What this checker is for
App Store localization is high-leverage for indie iOS developers because each storefront has its own indexed metadata. A keyword that's saturated in the US can be wide open in Sweden. The hard part isn't the value of localization — it's the bookkeeping. This checker is the bookkeeping. Tick which deliverables you have for each storefront and see at a glance which ones are launch-ready and which ones still need a translator.
The checker covers the 30 storefronts RespectASO supports, validated against the country guides in the registry so it stays in sync with what RespectASO actually researches.
What "done" looks like for a storefront
| Deliverable | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Title (30 chars) | Indexed for search; localized title is one of the strongest signals. |
| Subtitle (30 chars) | Indexed; carries trust signals and outcome language. |
| Keyword field (100 chars) | Indexed but not user-visible. Locale-specific search terms. |
| Screenshots | Localized screenshots dramatically improve in-store conversion. |
| Description | Not indexed for search but matters for conversion. Many indies skip and lose installs. |
Workflow

FAQ
Does the checker remember my progress?
Yes, in your browser's localStorage. Switching browsers or clearing browser data resets it.
Should I always localize the description?
The description isn't indexed for App Store search, but it does affect in-store conversion once a user lands on your listing. For storefronts you've decided to invest in, localized descriptions are usually worth the effort.
Pick the storefronts before you localize
Use this checker to track localization deliverables, and use RespectASO's Country Opportunity Finder to pick storefronts where ranking is realistic before you spend on translation.
