Mobile apps in the Media category have experienced an uptick in traffic these past few weeks and months as people scramble to get their hands on the latest news regarding coronavirus.
So, what can these brands do to capture, analyze, and act on these changing customer behaviors? One of the most critical pieces to this puzzle is first understanding how your app compares to others in this industry and then tracking the changes you’re seeing against these benchmarks.
Above all, benchmarks can help you understand why. Why is sentiment changing? Why are more people leaving reviews? Why is your app rating decreasing? When you have solid benchmarks to measure against, they can help you make sense of your own data and answer these questions.
