How to rank for “plant identifier”: 3 lead with it, 4 put it later
At 16 characters, the phrase leaves 14 of Apple's 30 for your brand. The shortest name in the top ten that uses it — “Free Plant Identifier”, 21 characters — puts the brand first and the keyword after it.
Apple builds phrases out of single words, so the 2 words here (“plant”, “identifier”) 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.
3 of the ten open their name with it (“Plant Identifier, Care: Planty” among them), while the other 4 that spell it out put it further along — the difference between the keyword being the product and being a feature.
Whether it is worth the slot depends on what else you could use it for. “plant identifier & garden care” scores 30 on opportunity against this term's 22, at difficulty 34 rather than 64. 12 of the 24 related terms score higher; the other 12 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.
