The understanding of these two technologies has proven critical to mobile-app creators and marketers that aim at developing seamless user experiences and optimise the engagement rates. Deep link vs deferred deep link are similar functions that work under different circumstances. Although the two technologies are designed to guide the users to a particular content in the mobile applications, the manner in which they work and the timing of operations by the two technologies gives different user experiences.

  Apple’s mobile app tracking transparency system has completely redefined the way of how mobile marketers use iOS install attribution . When Apple launched ATT with iOS 14.5, it required users to actively opt in to cross-app tracking, most of them started declining tracking requests and this essentially disrupted the traditional attribution strategies. This radical change led to previous IDFA-based attribution being ineffective almost overnight forcing marketers to re-examine their whole system of measurement.​   It is not just permission denials. In the absence of deterministic device-level attribution using IDFA, marketers find it difficult to provide accurate attribution of advertising spend to individual app installs and post-install user behaviours. This transparency puts considerable barriers to optimisation of campaigns, allocation of budget and calculation of returns-on-investment that was previously easy with the capability of tracking apps on iOS.​   ...

It has seen the development of mobile measurement partner platforms and MMP tools which help advertisers decode conversion values, aggregate postbacks and derive meaningful insights out of limited data signals. The stakes are also high, and a campaign failing to reach privacy thresholds may be shown no conversion data at all, and thus marketers would be unawa...

The mobile advertising market had a radical transformation when Apple introduced privacy-driven models, and such policies have completely changed the way marketers monitor user activity. What appeared to be a simple attribution process has turned into a complicated issue and mobile marketers have to find their way to a different paradigm. The release of SKAdNetwork was a breaking point in the history of mobile marketing that opened opportunities and major challenges to advertisers across the globe.

Understanding SKAdNetwork and Its Purpose SKAdNetwork is a privacy-friendly attribution system that is created by Apple to quantify the effectiveness of app install campaigns without knowing about the ...
