Launching an app is a momentous occasion. It’s the point where your engineers’ hard work begins to deliver value and return on investment, so it’s worth planning for. It’s also a make-or-break moment, with your initial users’ impressions of the app setting the stage for its future trajectory.
The success of your app depends on more than just polished code and shrewd marketing: it requires thoughtful preparation, cross-functional execution, and smart measurement at every step, from ideation to launch and beyond. Whether you’re a startup launching your first product, or an enterprise bringing an existing product to mobile, Adjust can help you launch with clarity, optimize with confidence, and grow with precision.
Careful preparation, often referred to as the project discovery phase, is an important part of app development, helping to clarify product requirements and minimize risks while staying within budget and timeframes. It’s especially critical to understand your target audience and competitors in detail. Analyzing popular apps in your category can reveal valuable insights about user expectations and pain points, which will make it easier to draft messaging that is both appealing and persuasive.
It’s also important to select the right app stores and platforms for your launch. Choosing the ones that are most relevant to your audience and have the highest visibility will allow you to maximize reach. It’s also wise to conduct thorough research on each platform’s submission guidelines, which can vary significantly from one another and may even prevent your app from being approved if not followed correctly.
