Measuring the effectiveness of an in-app event has been more difficult than it should be. Apple wants to fix that.

This week, Apple announced that developers can access key information about in-app events through App Analytics in App Store Connect.

“You can now view information about your in-app events, including event page views, reminder and notification data, and the number of downloads and redownloads that were driven by your in-app events,” explained Apple.

“Each metric can be viewed by territory, source type, device, and more, so you can understand how your in-app events are influencing your apps’ growth and success.”

In-app events were officially launched in October 2021 and many developers have been taking advantage to drive user engagement in their apps and games. The new analytics feature for in-app events will help developers determine whether they were worth running.
