It is important to integrate ASO data when searching for potential keywords to target in your ASA campaigns. This data not only helps determine which keywords generate significant traffic on the App Store but also enables you to understand user expectations and identify trends and opportunities for enhancing your campaign creatives and app product page metadata.

By effectively selecting and bidding on the right keywords, you can secure impressions for your Apple Search Ads campaigns.

Download or installation?

by: Rômulo Gomes, Founder CEO @ Easy App Reports

Many mistake installs for downloads and get confused when the numbers don't add up.

A Download is when the user clicks on "GET" on the App Store.

An Install is when the user opens the app for the first time.

Usually, you'll see "Installs" in attribution SDKs, such as AppsFlyer, Branch, and Adjust. That's because they can't really know a user downloaded your app, forcing them to track the first app open instead. Other tools like Firebase and Amplitude will do the same.

So, if you notice that your Downloads and Installs never match, don't freak out: that's normal. From experience, the loss between these steps stays between 2% to 5% - so it's a good idea to investigate further in case your rate is higher.

ps: comparing downloads and installs is also an easy, old-school way to check for ad fraud ;)
