Keep your finger on the pulse of the industry with Adjust's data.
App measurement is fundamentally different from web analytics due to data fragmentation across ad networks, devices, and apps. A Mobile Measurement Partner (MMP) like AppsFlyer bridges these gaps, enabling unified attribution, fraud protection, and LTV measurement. For eCommerce, granular event tracking, deep linking, and privacy-safe data collaboration are critical. Leaders should focus on metrics like IR, CPI, LTV, and ROAS, and adopt AI-driven optimization to overcome challenges like ad fraud and privacy changes. The future is Connected Commerce—integrating apps, web, retail media, and AI.
Adjust's 2026 predictions emphasize multi-platform measurement, AI-driven decision-ready insights, and linking optimization for growth. Key themes include aggregating signals for privacy-safe personalization, predictive analytics for long-term success, and evaluating paid and organic performance together. Regional highlights: Europe's gaming growth via monetization, China's AI-native entertainment, APAC's market divergence, Japan's demand for integrated measurement. Actionable takeaway: invest in unified analytics that connect mobile, web, and offline touchpoints to optimize user journeys and ROI.
Web-to-app strategies can significantly boost retention, engagement, and LTV by converting web users into high-value app users. Key pillars include defining clear goals, targeting high-intent users, designing native-feeling creatives, crafting compelling copy, ensuring seamless deep linking, and measuring attribution. Adjust's tools like Smart Banners, Smart Scripts, and TrueLink enable dynamic targeting, attribution continuity, and optimized routing. Data shows potential for 4x CTR improvements and click-to-install rates rising from 25% to 50%. Decision-makers should focus on segment-based optimization and post-install metrics to maximize ROI.
Super apps are growing globally, with the market valued at $114.2B in 2025, projected to reach $595.8B by 2034. APAC leads adoption (46.8% market share), while Europe and North America lag due to mature banking and privacy regulations. For ad ops, super apps create closed ecosystems that limit external tracking and attribution, shifting measurement toward lifecycle performance. Independent measurement platforms like Adjust are essential for connecting acquisition, engagement, and monetization data across services. Key verticals include fintech, mobility, and SMB tools.
Adjust's Pulse platform introduces three major updates: grouped logic for campaign automation rules, Microsoft Teams as a new alert channel, and scheduled AI reporting via Adjust Growth Copilot. These enhancements enable more structured, connected workflows for mobile marketing teams. Grouped logic allows multiple condition-action pairs in one rule, while Teams integration expands alert delivery options. Scheduled reporting automates recurring AI analysis, delivering insights at set times without manual intervention. These features aim to streamline decision-making and improve operational efficiency.
Analysis of 2022 World Cup mobile data reveals that the tournament's largest engagement window occurs early, with sports entertainment installs spiking 189% and sports news 204% on November 22. Engagement revolves around national team matches, with significant spikes from non-participating markets like China (+1,294% sports entertainment installs). For 2026, brands must adapt in real-time to shifting attention across matches and regions. Adjust's AI-powered attribution and analytics provide the visibility needed to capitalize on these global events.

E-commerce saw highest installs on Dec 26-28, while sessions peaked earlier during deal discovery periods. Finance apps had highest sessions in early December, dipping during holidays. Food delivery maintained steady growth throughout. Gaming installs rose after Christmas, peaking at +18% on New Year's Day. Travel apps peaked Dec 26-28. Key takeaway: marketers should time campaigns to each category's unique engagement windows to maximize ROI.
