Step by step

1

Open one of your games on Steam

Go to the store page of any of your games. The address looks like store.steampowered.com/app/1234567/Your_Game/.

Open the Steam store โ†’

2

Get your developer name

On that page, under the game description, read the line "Developer". That is the name AppWatch needs, spelled exactly the same.

To double-check how it is written, search your game on steamdb.info and look at the "Developer" field.

3

Or use the App ID

The App ID is the number in the store address (1234567 in the example). Use it if the developer name finds nothing, or if you only want some games. You can enter several IDs separated by commas.

4

Enter it in AppWatch

On the web: Settings โ†’ Steam. In the app: connect store โ†’ Steam. Type the developer name (or the App IDs) and save.

Your games and first data appear within a minute.

5

Optional: add sales and wishlists

If you want revenue and wishlist data, create a Publisher Web API key in Steamworks (partner.steamgames.com โ†’ Users & Permissions โ†’ Manage Groups, with the Partner API permission) and paste it in Settings โ†’ Steam.

You do not need this to track players, reviews, price and updates.

Frequently asked questions

โ–ถAppWatch found 0 games.

The developer name must match Steam exactly (capital letters, spaces, symbols). If it still finds nothing, use the App ID of your game instead.

โ–ถDo I need a Steamworks account?

No. Developer name or App IDs are enough to follow public data. The Publisher key is only for sales and wishlists.

โ–ถI have several studios or publishers.

Use App IDs and list every game you want to follow, separated by commas.
