Every summer, the mobile app industry experiences a silent yet impactful upheaval: shifts in user behavior, changing category popularity, and volatile search trends.  Data indicates that over 50% of app performance is significantly affected by seasonal factors—mastering these dynamics has become a new essential skill for growth strategists.

To help app marketers to understand the summer market  and identify critical timing windows for ASO and Apple Search Ads optimisation, we host a webinar - Prepare for Summer Seasonality on the App Store

We are honored to invite Julie Tonna, Founder of Neo Ads, as a guest speaker to share her insights on navigating through summer seasonality.

Opportunities and Challenges of Seasonality in the App Store

How can you determine if your app is affected by seasonal trends?

The FoxData team, in collaboration with Julie Tonna, will explain in four aspects: 

• Search Trends

Monitor surges in search volume for season-related keywords (such as "summer workouts" or "vacation planner") to assess whether there is a spike in user interest related to summer.

• Category Insights

Utilize App Store analytics tools and third-party platforms like FoxData to track overall category trends, identifying clear patterns of seasonal variation.

• Historical Data Review

Compare key metrics across different years—such as downloads, LTV, and IAP revenue—to detect specific summer growth or decline patterns and establish a seasonal impact reference model.

• In-App Behavior Changes

Track shifts in in-app activity during summer, including DAU fluctuations, retention rate, and usage frequency of particular features, to determine if user behavior shifts with the seasons.
