What did you do?
There has been a substantial decrease in the number of App install events with fb_mobile_first_app_launch
param being tracked accurately via the integration between AppsFlyer iOS SDK (version 6.10.1) and Facebook Business. This decrease in event tracking is negatively impacting the ability to measure app install performance accurately and analyze user acquisition campaigns effectively.
Background:
AppsFlyer iOS SDK (version 6.10.1) is being utilized to track app installs and other relevant events.
An integration has been established between AppsFlyer and Meta Ads, ensuring that the tracking data is transmitted correctly to Facebook Business.
The Facebook Business dashboard includes an "App Installs" chart, which is expected to display accurate information obtained from AppsFlyer.
Observation:
After analyzing the data, it has become evident that the number of App install events recorded in Facebook Business has experienced a significant drop. This decrease is inconsistent with the expected number of first app launches, raising concerns about the accuracy of event tracking.
What did you expect to happen?
The App install event with fb_mobile_first_app_launch
param , which represents the first launch of the app, should be tracked reliably by AppsFlyer iOS SDK and transmitted accurately to Facebook Business. This event is crucial for measuring user acquisition performance and optimizing advertising campaigns.
What happened instead?
There has been a critical decrease in the number of fb_mobile_first_app_launch events tracked and displayed accurately in the Facebook Business dashboard. The observed decrease is not consistent with the app's actual user acquisition and installation rates.
Please provide any other relevant information.
