Which localizations count in Singapore

Apple says people can search for your app using localized keywords in every country or region where the App Store supports that language (Apple). For Singapore, Apple lists 2 localizations (Apple: App Store localizations):

  • English (U.K.): also listed in 48 other storefronts covered here.
  • Chinese (Simplified): also listed in 1 other storefront covered here.

Each of these localizations has its own name, subtitle and 100-byte keyword field. Name and subtitle are visible to users, so keep them real text in that language. See App Store localization for keywords.

Check your App Store rank in Singapore

Your iPhone only shows the store of your Apple Account’s country. Apple’s public search data returns the top 200 apps for a term in any storefront; your rank is your app’s position in that list:
