AppsFlyerHow many in-app events generate the best performance?
In-app event measurement is crucial for app marketing success, yet many marketers fail to measure enough events. Analyzing over 320 billion events from 12,000 apps, the report reveals that gaming apps average 5.3 events and non-gaming apps 7.8, far below the peak performance range of 16-30 events. Measuring more events enables better audience segmentation, campaign optimization, and funnel analysis.
However, non-gaming apps may face data overload if they measure too many events. The sweet spot varies by vertical, and continuous iteration is essential for maximizing ROI.

AppsFlyerStrong open rates, weak app revenue: your email campaign isn’t broken. Your links are.
Email, SMS, and push are high-intent channels, but a structural gap between click and in-app action causes massive drop-off. CTRs of 30-40% often yield only 1-3% in-app conversion. The root cause is ESP link wrapping, which breaks deep link context and attribution. Fixing the handoff through proper deep linking can double purchase rates and unlock channel performance. Brands must treat the link as a continuation layer, not a redirect, and ensure context survives the transition.

Brands must vet partners for conflicts: does the platform or its parent benefit from ad spend? Without independence, budget allocation and ROAS calculations may reflect agency incentives over actual performance. Key questions: revenue from ads, cross-channel attribution consistency, data governance, and auditable methodology.
