AdjustTürkiye mobile app trends and growth insights for 2025 | Adjust
Summary
Turkey's mobile app market is a global force, ranking among the top 10 for downloads and time spent. In H1 2025, gaming installs increased 4% YoY with sessions up 12%. Finance app retention in Turkey outperformed both MENAT region and global benchmarks, with 15% on day 1 and 5% on day 30.
E-commerce installs dipped 7% YoY, but sessions grew 4%, showing resilience compared to global (-14%) and MENAT (-26%) declines. The report offers strategic data and insights to accelerate conversions, boost retention, and measure performance precisely.
Analyst Note
What's notable here is the divergence in Turkey's app economy relative to global benchmarks. While global e-commerce installs declined 14% and MENAT fell 26%, Turkey's e-commerce sessions actually grew 4% despite a 7% install dip. This signals a market where existing users are deepening engagement even as new acquisition slows—a critical nuance for UA managers allocating budgets across regions.
For gaming, the 4% install growth and 12% session increase suggest Turkey's mobile-first youth demographic is sustaining high engagement, making it a priority market for monetization strategists. The finance sector's strong retention (15% D1, 5% D30) also underscores Turkey as a high-LTV outlier compared to MENAT and global norms. The key implication for ad ops professionals is that regional granularity matters: Turkey's unique mix of advanced infrastructure and competitive user behavior demands local optimization rather than relying on broad regional trends.
The report's timing aligns with H1 2025 data, offering actionable benchmarks as teams plan for year-end campaigns in a market that continues to resist global downturns.

AdjustSeamless linking and UX for mobile growth | Adjust
Seamless linking and UX are critical but often overlooked drivers of mobile growth. As user journeys become omnichannel and cross-platform, broken links cause drop-offs and lost revenue. Deep linking boosts conversions by 20–30%, and owned channels are 3–4x more cost-efficient with 2x higher retention when integrated well. Marketers must prioritize linking infrastructure to ensure every click delivers a smooth experience, ultimately increasing app adoption, retention, and LTV.

AdjustThe 4R framework for understanding deep linking | Adjust
Karthik Kannan distills deep linking into a practical 4R framework: Remember, Reach, Retrieve, Route. For ad ops teams, the key insight is that campaign context must survive the click-to-app journey. Adjust TrueLink captures link parameters on click; the user is then guided into the app via Universal Links, Android App Links, URI schemes, app stores, or web-to-app flows. On SDK init, the app session is matched and attributed to the click, then link data is passed to the app for routing. Decision-makers should ensure deep link paths, campaign parameters, attribution matching, and fallback journeys are tested to protect measurement and user experience.
AdjustJapan’s finance app growth in 2026 | Adjust
Japan's finance app category is outperforming, with H1 2026 installs up 8% YoY and sessions up 40%—nearly 5x the install growth and well ahead of global figures (5% and 29%). Stock trading is the standout subvertical: installs +90% YoY and average session length climbing to 11.7 minutes, driven by NISA reforms and a retail investor resurgence. Retention is improving across the full 30-day curve (D1 17% to 19%, D30 7% to 8%). For ad ops teams, the takeaway is clear: prioritize measurement depth, re-engagement, and channel-level quality over top-of-funnel volume alone.
