What is an Operating System? Regardless of the fact that you are turning your laptop on, utilizing a mobile software program, saving a document, connecting to Wi-Fi, or playing a game, the operating system is working silently.

What are WhatsApp Deep Links (And Why Should You Care)?

WhatsApp has more than three billion users around the world. In plenty of countries, it is not just popular; it is basically the default way people message each other. Customers are already there every single day, asking questions, comparing products, deciding what to buy before they ever pick up the phone.

The Retention Gap: What Audience Segmentation Reveals About Mobile App Users

Audience segmentation can provide insights that one retention number cannot. Two people might download an app on the same day yet behave differently after that. One might continue to return for weeks, while the other might never come back after that one session. One person installs the app through organic traffic, while the other one only uses paid advertising. One might become a super user, and the other one makes minimal activity. But traditional cohort reports will show both of them at the same retention number.  To understand what lies behind this average figure, Apptrove analyzed 2.76 million users who installed 92 apps and studied retention related to the user acquisition channel, operating system, marketing activities, and the engagement level of users after installation. Why This Report Matters Most mobile teams already have retention data. However, they may not know how to use the information correctly. The installation cohort for May 2026 h...
