App Issue Map

I built AppIssueMap out of frustration with how inefficient competitor research is when you are building an app. Whenever I started a new idea or tried to improve an existing product, I found myself scrolling through hundreds of 1-3 star App Store and Google Play reviews. It was slow, biased, and easy to miss patterns. The most valuable feedback was there, but extracting anything useful felt like busywork. The problem I wanted to solve was simple: how do you quickly understand what users consistently complain about without reading everything yourself? The initial idea was just to collect low rating reviews. As I worked on it, it became obvious that raw reviews were not enough. The real value was in grouping recurring issues and surfacing themes like missing features, performance problems, pricing frustration, or UX confusion in a way that was easy to act on. The process evolved toward clarity over metrics. No sentiment scores, no vanity charts. Just practical insights you can use to prioritise features, differentiate your product, or validate a new idea before building it. AppIssueMap is built for indie devs and founders who want to listen to users at scale without drowning in reviews. Happy to answer questions or hear feedback.
