• Location services limit geographic data

• Traffic source and campaigns are hard to track

• Completely different code across devices

• Mobile use more is time and location specific

What’s next for mobile analytics?LOCATION ANALYTICS

PROBLEM A photo sharing app is having a difficult time selling ads to national restaurants as their app isn’t an obvious fit for that target market.

SOLUTION Using Location Analytics, the app sales team is able to highlight that 55% of its users are nearby a restaurant or bar when they are interacting with the app. This information helps the company close a number of high value deals in markets that were previously considered cold.

PROBLEM Product Manager sees a use case for adding voice controls to their mobile app, but doesn’t have hard numbers to justify the feature.

SOLUTION After implementing Location Analytics the Program Manager discovers that 42% of their users are in transit and another 19% of users are walking when interacting with the app. Using this data, the Program Manager easily makes the case for adding in voice controls. This not only improves safety, but app store ratings

PROBLEM A Bar Code Scanning App is seeing an uptick in new users in the last month, but the retention rate is half that of previous users. The team is mystified as to why this is occurring.

SOLUTION Reviewing the Location Analytics reports, the company discovers a significant uptick in activity nearby Grocery Stores in the past 30 days. The company quickly realizes that they aren’t setup to support grocery items, and quickly moves to support that type of good, leading to a higher retention rate of new users.
