Automating PPP pricing across 170 countries for Google Play Console (so I stopped doing it by hand)
I run a few apps on Play Store and I like running pricing experiments — testing different price points for subscriptions and one-time products in different markets.
The part I dreaded every time: PPP-adjusting prices. If you've done it, you know the drill — pull a purchasing-power index, cross-reference exchange rates, do the math for every country, then go update each one manually in Play Console. For a handful of countries it's tedious. For 170+ it's a half-day gone.
There are tools that automate this, but they're built for teams with real budgets — the pricing puts them out of reach for a solo dev running one or two apps.
So I built SnapParity, a small Windows/Mac desktop app that does the whole loop:
Connect it to your Play Console with a service account JSON (stays local on your machine, never leaves your device)
Pick the product, set a base country and price
It calculates PPP-adjusted prices for every country using World Bank data + live exchange rates and drops them into a table
You review/tweak anything you want
Hit push — prices go live on Play Console
If you don't even want a tool and just want the numbers, I put the PPP calculator up for free here: snapparity.app/ppp-converter — no login, no catch, just useful if you're pricing manually and want a sanity check.
The full app has a free trial if you want to try the Play Console sync: snapparity.app
Genuinely want feedback more than sales here — if you've dealt with PPP pricing for your app, how are you handling it right now? Manually, an expensive SaaS, or just not bothering because it's too much friction? Curious what breaks for other solo devs.
