Creating a solid app is only half the battle won. Without measuring and aggressively improving the right mobile app metrics, youll struggle to stay afloat. The competition is stiff. Most apps experience 89.3%-98.7% churn within 30 days, and in-app purchase conversion rates are often below 5% for the small number of users who remain. How do you even survive considering these numbers?

Finally, your SaaS mobile app is live! But is your mobile user acquisition strategy strong enough?
