Overview
The Appstack overview module serves as your iOS (SKAdNetwork) analytics hub, sourcing data directly from Apple’s raw postback copies, with no manipulation.
No ad network integrations are needed to start seeing data. While we cannot match the postbacks to the campaign, we can still show you the total postbacks and installs.
