Track channels,
sources,
campaigns that
drive app installs.
The App store doesn't
share the referrer of a
download. So
developers use
fingerprinting,
leverage relationships
with networks, and
use other proprietary
methods to track iOS
installs.
Track in-app behavior
of users. Define
events (completing a
level, purchase, etc.,)
to identify high-value
users. Understand
demos, geography,
location, and interests
of app user base.
Optimize app install
campaigns based
on post-install
events. De-duping
prior installs, deep-
linking, and re-
engaging with
inactive users.
Track crashes and
errors by device,
app version,
timeframe to help
fix the issues within
the app.
Web-to-app, app-
to-app, LTV, cohort
analysis, and
cross-product
capabilities.
It is a set of measurement capabilities ranging from acquisition to attribution.
