AppFollow 2.4 Update, Winter Edition

Winter is almost over and we are ready to present you our first updates in 2017. AppFollow is now integrated with App Analytics from iTunes Connect, andUser Acquisition from Google Play Console, as well we got new integrations to monitor ad campaigns through AppMetrica and Search Ads. As well we improved our core features: Keywords, ASO tools and API.

1. App Analytics & User Acquisition Integration

App Analytics Report in Slack

Sales report launch set off new type of integrations, so soon enough we’re adding integrations with App Analytics in iTunes Connect and User Acquisition in Google Play Dev Console. Currently you can get updates on impressions, views, conversions and sessions stats in your Slack. It helps to keep an eye on your KPIs and have insights on ASO implementations: did your latest changes influence on your potential users?!

2. Search Ads Integration

We continue implementing new features for Search Ads (first part was done in the end of last year). If you’re already using this tool to advertise your apps, you can now receive updates on your campaigns directly in Slack.

3. AppMetrica Integration

A brand new integration we hope you’ll like as well — AppMetrica stats in Slack. Similar to AppsFlyer, AppMetrica allows you to track ad campaigns performance, and our integration brings key metrics in your Slack:

AppMetrica integration setup is quite complex but it’s definitely worth it ?.

4. Keywords Improvement

We’ve updated Keywords Slack format by adding a short summary on keywords: short stats for all words & phrases in top-1, top-5, etc. We as well point out the change so it’s easier to track the dynamics.

We as well improved keywords rankings by supporting bundles in the search results. So now app positions data is much more precise.

As we add new features to our service, we improve our API as well. For all those of you who are actively pumping up ASO for their apps we added new calls: Suggest, Search and Trending search. In our previous article we explained how this features work.

We also moved our API doc to a very convenient service — APIary.io:
