How to rank for “flight tracker”: 1 lead with it, 7 put it later
At 14 characters, the phrase leaves 16 of Apple's 30 for your brand. The shortest name in the top ten that uses it — “Flight Tracker +”, 16 characters — shows the pattern: the keyword first, the brand in whatever is left.
Apple builds phrases out of single words, so the 2 words here (“flight”, “tracker”) can sit in different fields and still match the whole term. Each counts once across the name, subtitle and keyword field, so repeating a word you already have buys nothing and takes space another keyword could use.
Only “Flight Tracker +” opens its name with the phrase; the other 7 that spell it out put it later in the name, where it counts for less.
Whether it is worth the slot depends on what else you could use it for. “flight tracker live radar” scores 28 on opportunity against this term's 19, at difficulty 27 rather than 69. 20 of the 24 related terms score higher; the other 4 score lower.
Choosing keywords you can rank for explains how the three numbers are worked out, and App Store metadata, field by field covers how to split a phrase this long across the three fields.
