About mobile app conversion tracking

If you use Google Ads to promote Android or iOS mobile apps, you can use conversion tracking to help you learn how effectively your ads lead to app installs and in-app activity. This article explains the different types of mobile conversions and how to track them.

Note: New privacy measures are in place for iOS 14 users. These may affect your conversion tracking in Google Ads. We recommend that you use Google Analytics for Firebase SDK. Firebase SDK automatically integrates with SKAdnetwork, which is Apple's framework for iOS campaign measurement that adheres to these new privacy measures. Keep an eye on iOS updates to learn more and to learn any steps you can take.

Types of mobile app conversions you can track

You can track the following conversions for your Android and iOS apps:

  • App installs, such as first open: Conversion tracking can measure how effectively your ads are leading people to install your mobile apps. Apart from learning how many people are seeing your ads and taking action by installing your app, you can also track the number of people who open your app after installing in response to your ads. This is captured by default using Firebase or most third-party app analytics providers.
  • In-app actions, such as purchases: If you're using Google Ads to drive purchases or other valuable actions within your app, use conversion tracking to measure your campaigns' effectiveness. You can track custom in-app actions using Firebase or any third-party app analytics provider by adding the relevant code to your app.
    • After you set up app conversion tracking, you can use Web to App Connect to provide a seamless web-to-app experience for your customers and drive on average 2 times higher conversion rates for ad clicks landing in your app compared to your mobile website. Refer to the section on Web to App Connect below to learn more.

For Android apps, there are several conversions you can track automatically from Google Play without adding tracking code to your app:

  • Downloads: Automatically track when someone who clicked your ad downloads your app from Google Play store.
  • In-app purchases: Automatically track when someone who clicked your ad performs an in-app purchase for apps that use Google Play’s in-app billing.
  • Pre-registrations: Automatically track when someone who clicked your ad pre-registers for your app or game from Google Play store.

Web to App Connect

If you have both a website and a mobile app, you can set up app conversion tracking using Web to App Connect. Once you’ve used the Web to App Connect interface to set up conversion tracking and deep linking (which allows you to link from your ads directly into your business app), you can provide a seamless web-to-app experience for your customers and drive on average 2 times higher conversion rates for ad clicks landing in your app compared to your mobile website.

With Web to App Connect, customers can easily complete their intended action, whether purchasing, signing up, or adding items to their cart. Plus, from within the Web to App Connect interface, you can track these in-app conversion actions and get recommendations on how to improve your campaign.

To get started with Web to App Connect, follow the 3 steps below:

  1. In your Google Ads account, click the Tools icon Tools Icon.
  2. Click the Planning drop down in the section menu.
  3. Click App advertising hub. This will take you to the Web to App Connect interface.

Reporting for App campaigns on iOS and Android

To offer a more complete report of iOS and Android app campaign conversions, we may use privacy-safe data from models based on users who have previously signed into Google services. These models predict iOS and Android app conversions that we're unable to observe directly. This allows us to provide complete reporting on iOS and Android app campaign behavior that combines observed and modeled conversions.

Note: Complete reporting for app ads served to iOS and Android users will only be available within Google Ads.

Target CPA bidding for apps

Since these campaigns are optimized to count app downloads, there isn’t a waiting period for Target CPA. As soon as you've set up conversion tracking, you can use Target CPA bidding to help get more installs at your cost-per-install goal.


Video ad conversion tracking for apps

Conversion tracking is unique for video ads. An Engaged-view conversion is counted when someone watches at least 10 seconds of your video ad on YouTube or the Display Network. Conversion reporting for videos includes click-through conversions and Engaged-view conversion windows. App download conversions are counted only if the install happens within 2 days of the engagement. For people who click on your ad, conversions are counted if they install your app within 30 days.

Your video ad's billing will vary depending on where it’s shown. If it’s on YouTube, you’ll be billed for each impression. If it’s on the Display Network, you’ll be billed for each engagement.


Security and privacy for conversion tracking

Google has strict security standards. Google Ads only collects data on sites and apps where you have configured tracking.

Ensure that you provide users with clear and comprehensive information about the data you collect on your sites, apps, and other properties. Make sure that you also get consent for that collection where required by law or any applicable Google policies governing user consent, including Google’s EU User Consent Policy.
