Lagerland Apps

Mac and iPhone tools for indie App Store releases

Ship without
App Store Connect tab fatigue.

A release means editing the same fields in every locale, exporting the screenshots again because one caption changed, and opening App Store Connect in a browser to see whether anyone bought anything. Two Mac apps and one iPhone app take over those jobs.

Built by an indie iOS dev, for indie iOS devs

Lagerland Apps is a one-person studio shipping 20 apps across iOS and macOS, every one of them through App Store Connect. These three tools handle the listing, screenshot, and sales work on those releases.

What does the indie iOS dev workflow look like?

1. AppMeta (Mac) → your listing
Every locale of your listing in one window, or one field across all locales. Before you push, a field-level diff shows what will change against the live listing. Keyword difficulty and demand are measured against the live App Store, with the evidence shown, and In-App Purchases, TestFlight, and submission sit in the same app.
2. Mockly (Mac) → your screenshots
Put your real screenshots on 3D iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro, and Apple Watch models, write the captions once, and keep all 50 App Store languages in one project. Translate with your own AI key or a CSV file, then export exact-size PNG or HEIC files or upload straight to App Store Connect.
3. AppMeta Pulse (iPhone) → your sales and reviews
Proceeds, MRR, subscribers, trials, and reviews for all your apps, with every day it fetches kept on your iPhone after Apple's roughly one-year window. Answer reviews one at a time or up to 25 at once, and check the month's pace on a widget.
All three, or pick one
The three apps are independent of each other and only share a developer. Buy the one that fixes your worst workflow problem first.

Questions

FAQ

Is there a native Mac app for App Store Connect?
Yes. AppMeta is a Mac app for App Store Connect. It puts every locale of your listing in one window, shows a field-level diff against the live listing before you push, and handles In-App Purchases, subscriptions, TestFlight, Game Center, reviews, and submission. Your API key is kept in the Mac Keychain, and requests go straight to Apple. The free download runs Demo Mode on sample data; connecting your own account needs Pro.
How do I monitor App Store revenue and subscriptions on iPhone?
AppMeta Pulse is an iPhone app that shows proceeds, MRR, subscribers, trials, and reviews for all your apps from App Store Connect. It keeps every day it fetches on your iPhone, so your sales history outlasts Apple's roughly one-year window, and 12 Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets show how the month is going. It needs an App Store Connect API key with the Admin role, which stays in the iPhone's Keychain.
What's the fastest way to generate localised App Store screenshots?
Mockly is a Mac app built for this job. You keep all 50 App Store languages in one project, translate the captions with AI through your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google key or bring them in from a CSV file, and put your real screenshots on 3D iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro, and Apple Watch models. Then export exact-size PNG or HEIC files, or upload the pages to App Store Connect with your API key. Mockly is a one-time purchase with no subscription.
Are these tools a replacement for Fastlane?
They work alongside it. Fastlane automates releases from the command line. AppMeta and Mockly are Mac apps for the listing and screenshot work you still do by hand, and AppMeta Pulse follows sales and reviews on your iPhone. If your metadata and screenshots already run end to end through Fastlane or CI, you may not need AppMeta or Mockly.
