Your carefully crafted app page is underperforming, outshined by countless lookalike competitors?
Store policies change silently—one misstep and your app could be taken down without warning?
Welcome to the real mobile battleground: the moment your app goes live, you're already in the arena.
Cold start isn't just a phase—it’s a survival test.
According to FoxData, over 63% of new apps were eliminated during the cold start stage in the first half of 2025, while user acquisition costs surged by 30%.
