Revenue & download estimates for 1M+ iOS apps, re-computed nightly, every figure with its confidence range. What's earning, who's climbing, where the gap is — the whole store, finally readable.

$408k–$452k, 92% confidence. A tight band you can act on, and you still see exactly how sure we are.
You can't out-accuracy a billion-dollar data panel with broad estimates. But you can be honest about uncertainty instead of faking precision. That's the whole product.
Appdex is not pretending to be a giant panel. It is a paid indie intelligence tool built around confidence bands you can act on, cross-platform opportunity checks and a price a small team can actually test.
Where a real, publicly reported figure exists, our estimate is reconciled against it. Truth first, model second.
The entire storefront — not a hand-picked sample. Charts, prices, reviews and ads re-read every single night.
A tight band means we're sure; a wide one says treat it as directional. No invented testimonials, no fake precision.
Most tools ship a number once and leave it stale. Appdex refreshes nightly — more apps, more ads, more reviews covered than the night before. And where a real, public number exists for an app, its range gets tighter and more trustworthy. More coverage every night; tighter where it counts. Hover each stage.
Refreshed nightly · honest by default · broader coverage, tighter where real numbers exist.
One HTTP call returns a revenue estimate with its confidence label — so a coding agent, a research assistant or your own script can answer “how much does this app make?” without leaving the terminal. Same engine as the site, same honest ranges.

Every one of these is worth real money — and every one gets answered with real data, not a hunch.
Honestly? No estimate tool sees everything — and unlike the rest, we don't pretend to. That's why every estimate ships with a confidence range, so you know whether to act or treat it as directional.
Use the midpoint for quick comparison and the band for risk. Tight bands are easier to act on; wider bands are still useful for order-of-magnitude screening.
iOS App Store is the core. Public Android install brackets are used as a cross-platform demand check where available.
Most tools print one confident number. We print the honest range. You can't out-accuracy a panel with broad estimates, but you can be straight about uncertainty. We are.
