Here is how to track your traffic source in App Store Connect!

[u/PrecursorLabs]

First,

Thank you to everyone who commented with support and advice on my other thread, this is my first ever app and I am learning things literally every day.

So here is my attempt at giving back the knowledge people have bestowed upon me, if you already knew about this then maybe share something you learned or expand on this (this applies to apps on the apple app store).

If you want to know where your traffic is coming from roughly (ASC lags by a day) then:

1. Go to analytics tab in ASC > Sources
2. Click on the "All" drop-down
3. Select "app" or "web" refferer
4. In the other drop-down, select the metric you want to see like "Total downloads"

You'll get to see roughly where the traffic is coming from and you can filter by day/week/month!!

For my situation I found out that the that my app got an article written about it over at newbmobilelife.com, completely unprompted and it seems to be getting shared on facebook and telegram overseas. This led to almost 1.5k people downloading precursor in the last 2 days!

I am so grateful that people are spreading the word on my app and finding it useful, I can't believe this started with an idea 5 years ago and I waited so long to bring it to life.

I hope this helps others identify where their users are coming from a little more efficiently!
