How to Buy App Installs

Post your app store link, set your device and geo requirements, and real users install your app on their own phones — you verify every install before paying.

01

Create Your Task

Paste your Google Play or App Store link, set the reward, and specify your requirements: device type (Android or iOS), target country, and whether a keyword install is needed.

02

Workers Download and Install

Real users with the required device open your store listing — searching your app by the target keyword if specified — and install it on their own phone. No emulators.

03

Review the Proof

Workers submit a screenshot of the app installed and open on their device. You check the device type and country match your requirements, then approve or reject.

04

Your Install Count Grows

Approved installs add to your real install count on Google Play or the App Store — the metric that drives store search ranking, chart placement, and social proof.

Pricing

App Install Pricing

Android installs start at $0.05; iOS installs start at $0.25 due to Apple ID requirements. Keyword installs — where workers search your app by a specific keyword before installing — reward more because they carry a direct ASO ranking signal.

Minimum Reward

Use Cases

When App Installs Change Your Ranking

App store ranking algorithms treat install velocity as a core signal — these are the situations where install count changes your app's discoverability.

App Launch Install Velocity

Problem
A new app with few installs ranks near the bottom of store search results — algorithms read low install velocity in the first days as a lack of product-market fit.
With RapidWorkers
Workers deliver installs in the launch window, giving the app the velocity signal that pushes it into relevant keyword search results.

Keyword Ranking for Target Terms

Problem
An app on page 3 of 'habit tracker' search results captures almost none of the organic traffic from that keyword — install count is the primary ranking factor.
With RapidWorkers
Keyword installs — workers search your exact term then install — send the strongest possible signal to the algorithm for that specific keyword.

Top Charts Eligibility

Problem
App store editorial teams and top chart algorithms require minimum install velocity to consider a title — without it, discovery is limited to paid UA spend.
With RapidWorkers
Reaching install thresholds opens the app to organic chart placement and editorial consideration alongside paid user acquisition.

New Country or Region Launch

Problem
An app successful in one market restarts its ranking from zero in a new store — without local install signals, it's invisible to local users searching the category.
With RapidWorkers
Workers with devices registered in the target country install from the local store, feeding geo-specific ranking signals to the algorithm.

Social Proof for Paid UA

Problem
An app showing 300 installs in ads loses to a competitor showing 50,000 — the download count on the store listing directly affects paid acquisition conversion.
With RapidWorkers
Workers add to the real install count displayed on your listing, improving the conversion rate of paid user acquisition campaigns.

Restarting Momentum After a Drop

Problem
An algorithm change or a period of low install volume can cause a ranking to drop and stay down — the algorithm requires fresh install signals to re-rank the app.
With RapidWorkers
Workers restore install velocity, giving the algorithm the activity signal it needs to re-rank the app in search and browse results.

This is how workers see your task on RapidWorkers

Job Description

Go to the app store link in this task. If this is a keyword install: open the Google Play or App Store search bar and type the exact keyword provided, then find and install the app from the search results. If this is a direct install: navigate to the listing and install. The app must be installed on your own personal Android or iOS device — not an emulator.

Keep the app installed for at least 7 days after completing the task. One install per worker per app. Submit a screenshot of the app open on your device, with the device's home screen or app drawer visible showing the installed app icon.

Submission Instructions

Step 1: Search for the app using the keyword provided (keyword tasks) or go directly to the listing.

Step 2: Install the app on your own personal device.

Step 3: Open the app and take a screenshot showing it running on your device.

Step 4: Submit the screenshot for review.

Got Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. You post a task where real Android or iOS users download and install your app on their own personal devices. You set your device type, country, and keyword requirements, and review a screenshot of the installed app before approving payment.

Yes. Install velocity is one of the primary ranking signals in both the App Store and Google Play search algorithms. Apps that accumulate installs quickly for a given keyword move up in search results for that term. Install count also feeds chart rankings — top free, top grossing, and category charts are all influenced by recent install volume.

A keyword install is when a worker opens the app store search bar, types your exact target keyword, finds your app in the results, and installs it. This sends a stronger ranking signal than a direct install because it tells the algorithm there is search intent behind the install. Keyword installs are the most effective way to move an app up in search results for a specific term.

Android installs start at $0.05 because Google accounts are easy to create and maintain. iOS installs start at $0.25 because workers need a real Apple ID with a payment method on file, which is harder to maintain and has stricter account requirements. Country-specific iOS installs cost more because workers need an Apple ID registered in the target country's store.

Both Google Play and the App Store have fraud detection systems that flag unnatural install patterns — large spikes in a short time window, installs from the same IP ranges, or installs immediately followed by uninstalls. Tasks on RapidWorkers use real users on real devices with varied IP addresses. Spreading installs over several days and requiring workers to keep the app installed reduces detection risk significantly.

Tasks require workers to keep the app installed for at least 7 days. You can specify a longer retention period in your task brief. Longer retention is better for your install quality metrics — both stores track uninstall rates and rapid uninstalls are a negative signal. Workers who uninstall early can be rejected at no cost to you.

Yes. You can specify the target country in your task requirements. Workers install from their local App Store or Google Play, which means the install originates from that country and contributes to your country-specific ranking. Country targeting is especially useful for apps launching in a new market or trying to rank for regional search terms.
