Saving Pennies and the ASO Strategy of Money Manager
Posted on December 23rd, 2025
Small changes in Money Manager's ASO execution could result in a boost in visibility and conversion rates. Read more to see where they can improve.

Winning App Store Optimization (ASO) relies on developers communicating value instantly, clearly, and strategically in a space where users make decisions in seconds. Every character, every screenshot, and every visual cue plays a role in whether an app earns attention or gets scrolled past.
In this week’s App Store News, we are taking a deep dive into how Streaks Workout's current App Store listing performs from an ASO standpoint. We will evaluate the app’s title, subtitle, and creatives, highlight what is working, and identify where meaningful opportunities exist to improve discoverability and clarity. Later in the blog, we will compare Streaks Workout to a leading competitor, Sweat: Fitness App For Women, to showcase how small but intentional listing decisions can significantly impact perception and performance.
The goal of this week’s analysis is to demonstrate how ASO best practices can create opportunities to ensure that the app’s value is communicated upfront, efficiently, and in a manner that aligns with how users currently browse the App Store.
One of the most important, and often underutilized, elements of an App Store listing is the app title. Apple allows up to 30 characters for the title field, and the app title “Streaks Workout” is currently using only 15 of those characters.
From an ASO standpoint, this represents a significant missed opportunity.
The app’s current subtitle, “For all fitness levels,” communicates inclusivity, which is valuable. However, inclusivity alone does not clarify functionality. When users encounter this listing in search results or while browsing, they are not given enough information to immediately understand what the app actually does.
At a glance, a potential user could reasonably wonder:
In the mobile app marketplace, ambiguity works against conversion rates. Users do not slow down to investigate. They make snap judgments based on what they see in the search results and the first few seconds on the product page.
An optimized title and subtitle should work together to answer three core questions immediately:
Streaks Workout’s current approach answers only one of those questions partially. While “for all fitness levels” tells users who it might be for, it does not explain how the app delivers value or what problem it solves.
From an app keyword strategy perspective, unused title characters also limit discoverability. The title is one of the most heavily weighted metadata fields for search visibility. Incorporating relevant, high-intent keywords related to home workouts, custom workouts, bodyweight exercises, or workout planning could significantly improve the app’s ability to surface in relevant search queries over time.
This is not about keyword stuffing. It is about making strategic use of the space that Apple intentionally provides to help apps get discovered.

Where Streaks Workout needs the most attention is its screenshot strategy.
The app uses all 10 available screenshots, which on the surface suggests a robust approach. However, quantity alone does not equal effectiveness. The issue lies in how those screenshots are being used.
Currently, the screenshots primarily focus on in-app experiences and interface views. While it is valuable to show the product itself, relying solely on raw UI visuals creates several problems for conversion.
First, it assumes the user already understands what the app does. Second, it requires the user to interpret the functionality independently. Third, it fails to communicate benefits clearly and quickly.
In today’s App Store environment, screenshots are not just visual previews. They are billboards. They are messaging tools. They should clearly state what the app does, why it is useful, and how it fits into the user’s life.
The first three screenshots are especially critical. These are the screenshots most likely to be seen in search results and the ones that set the tone for the entire listing. For Streaks Workout, these first screenshots currently do not do enough heavy lifting.
While seeing an in-app experience can be helpful, using every screenshot solely for UI views limits the opportunity to tell a compelling story. There is no immediate callout that explains:
These are not minor features. They are primary selling points. Yet they are buried in the description instead of being front and center in the creative set.
Modern App Store users want information instantly. If they have to scroll down to the description to understand the core purpose of an app, many will not bother. They will simply move on to the next option.
An effective screenshot strategy would combine:
Currently, Streaks Workout’s screenshots display the product but do not provide an explanation.
Ironically, the app description is where Streaks Workout finally shines.
Once a user scrolls down, it becomes clear that this app is designed to help users work out from home by creating custom exercises and workouts. The description highlights several strong value points, including:
These features are exactly what many users are searching for. They address common pain points such as lack of equipment, lack of time, and desire for flexibility. However, placing these selling points primarily in the description limits their impact.
Descriptions are important, but they are not the primary conversion driver. Screenshots and metadata do the majority of the work. The description should reinforce what users already understand, rather than introducing the app for the first time.
By failing to visually surface these benefits, Streaks Workout misses an opportunity to connect with users who make fast decisions based on glanceable information.

To understand how Streaks Workout could improve its listing, it is helpful to compare it to a strong competitor.
Sweat: Fitness App For Women provides a clear example of effective ASO execution, particularly in terms of metadata usage and screenshot storytelling.
Sweat’s subtitle, “Workout at Home or In The Gym,” immediately communicates functionality. It utilizes available character space efficiently and targets high-intent keywords that align with users' search behavior. There is no ambiguity about what the app does or how it can be used.
From the very first screenshot, Sweat gets the message across. The opening creative states:
This screenshot uses a real human photograph performing a workout, which adds relatability and emotional connection. It also clearly defines the audience and the value proposition within seconds.
The second screenshot shifts to an in-app experience within an iPhone mockup, paired with text that reads:
The third screenshot continues the pattern, showing another in-app view with messaging around:
What Sweat does particularly well is maintain consistency across the entire screenshot set. Each image follows a similar structure:
This repetition is not boring. It is reassuring. It helps users quickly scan the listing and absorb information without cognitive overload.
Compared to Streaks Workout, these design and messaging choices make Sweat’s listing feel more organized, more functional, and more intentional. The user does not have to guess what the app is or how to use it. The listing does the work for them.
While the differences between these two listings may seem subtle, their impact is significant.

Streaks Workout:
These are not product issues. These are presentation issues. And they are exactly the types of issues ASO is designed to solve.
Streaks Workout is a strong app with meaningful functionality, but its App Store listing does not yet reflect its full potential. By optimizing title and subtitle usage, clarifying value upfront, and reworking its screenshot strategy to focus on benefits rather than just interfaces, the app could significantly improve both visibility and conversion.
In the App Store, attention is earned, not given. Users make decisions quickly, and the apps that win are those that communicate clearly, confidently, and immediately. Small changes in messaging, layout, and metadata can make a measurable difference over time.
Putting in the ASO reps is not about chasing trends. It is about building a listing that works as hard as the product itself.
App Store Optimization is never one-size-fits-all. Every app has a unique audience, a distinct competitive landscape, and distinct growth opportunities.

Cleanup demonstrates a solid foundation in their app listing, but implementing ASO best practices can help set them apart from the competition.

By incorporating high-volume keywords, creatives, & A/B testing, the listing can better communicate the device’s capabilities during peak app seasonality.
