The App Store is a tougher environment than Google Play: Apple reviews app behaviour closely, and ranking is driven heavily by install velocity on specific search terms. When you buy iOS installs with 9xen, each download is placed by a real iPhone or iPad from a real Apple ID, paced to look like a natural surge of interest rather than a sudden spike that draws attention.
Apple's search algorithm, built around the App Store Search Ads auction and organic ranking engine, weighs a handful of signals far more heavily than Google Play does: tap-through rate from a search result, conversion rate after a tap, and the velocity of installs tied to a given term. Because Apple exposes far fewer apps per screen than Google Play, moving from position eight to position three on a competitive term can roughly double your organic traffic overnight, which is why founders who purchase app installs on iOS tend to see the clearest return of any platform.
iOS users historically spend more inside apps, making early App Store visibility valuable.
Most App Store downloads start from a search, so keyword-aligned installs matter more here than anywhere else.
Delivery speeds are capped to stay well within normal usage patterns Apple expects to see.

Apple's App Store review guidelines explicitly ban manipulating charts or rankings through fake engagement, so safety on iOS is not optional, it is the whole product. Every install in an order comes from a dedicated iOS device running a real Apple ID that has agreed to receive install offers, never a jailbroken device, a spoofed identifier, or a server-side script faking a download.
We cap daily delivery per app well below the threshold that tends to trigger Apple's own anomaly detection, and we distribute installs across a rotating pool of IP ranges and device models so no single pattern repeats often enough to look artificial.
If you are launching a subscription-based or finance app, both categories Apple scrutinises more closely, you can ask our support team to apply an even more conservative delivery curve at no extra cost.
The App Store surfaces far fewer results per screen than Google Play, and search accounts for a larger share of total discovery on iOS than it does on Android. That combination means a modest jump in search ranking tends to produce a disproportionately large jump in organic installs on iOS, since users rarely scroll past the first handful of results before tapping one.
It also means the App Store notices install velocity on a specific term faster than Google Play does, so a tightly targeted keyword install campaign on iOS can show measurable rank movement within days rather than weeks.
iOS installs on their own improve your ranking signal, but combining them with app ratings and app reviews gives new visitors a reason to trust your listing once they land on it. Most of our customers order all three together for a launch week push.
Will buying iOS installs put my Apple Developer account at risk?
No, every install is placed by a genuine Apple ID on a real iPhone or iPad at a pace capped to look like normal organic interest, so it never touches your developer account directly.
Do you support iPad as well as iPhone?
Yes, our device pool covers both iPhone and iPad, and you can weight an order toward whichever form factor matches your app.
Can I target a specific country or App Store category?
Yes, every order lets you choose the storefront country, and keyword installs let you target the exact search term tied to your category.
How is buying iOS installs different from buying Android installs?
The delivery mechanics are similar, but iOS installs are paced more conservatively and weighted toward search-driven delivery, since the App Store relies more heavily on search than Google Play does.
