An Appfigures alternative
that reads from Apple, not a warehouse.
Appfigures is a capable SaaS dashboard for app sales, subscriptions, and rankings. It also stores your App Store Connect data on its servers. AppMeta Pulse takes a simpler path: it reads from App Store Connect's API directly, on your device, using your own API key. No middleman.

About AppMeta Pulse
Questions
FAQ
What is a good native alternative to Appfigures?
AppMeta Pulse is a native iPhone, iPad, and Mac alternative to Appfigures and similar dashboards. It uses your own App Store Connect API key to read directly from App Store Connect's API, so your sales, downloads, subscriptions, and refunds never pass through a third-party data warehouse.
Does AppMeta Pulse store my App Store Connect data on a server?
Not on ours. AppMeta Pulse fetches data on your device, using your App Store Connect API key stored in the iOS Keychain. With iCloud Sync on, the data is also kept in your own private iCloud database on Apple's servers, which we can't access. Lagerland Apps never sees your revenue, downloads, or any business data.
How much does AppMeta Pulse cost compared to Appfigures?
AppMeta Pulse starts from $0.99/month for a single dashboard — a small monthly cost to cover App Store Connect API rate-limit infrastructure on the user's side. Appfigures and similar SaaS dashboards typically charge per-app or per-seat at higher tiers.
Does AppMeta Pulse support multiple developer accounts?
Yes. AppMeta Pulse supports switching between multiple App Store Connect accounts you have access to, useful for indie developers and small teams managing more than one team.
