When it comes to mobile customer engagement, push notifications are often the first channel that comes to mind. They are a key driver of mobile retention: users who receive push notifications are 2.5\u00d7 more likely to remain engaged than those who do not. The channel combines the immediacy of SMS with the cost efficiency of email. <\/p>\n\n
Retention is a critical challenge in mobile. Half of users never return to an app after their first visit, and only 15% come back after one week. Focusing solely on acquisition and installs therefore means leaving significant opportunities on the table. <\/p>\n\n
Push notifications are particularly effective. According to Airship, average click-through rates are 3.4% on iOS and 4.6% on Android, compared with 0.5% and 1.3% respectively for email.<\/p>\n\n
Today, increasingly sophisticated and precise engagement solutions enable brands to build a deeper understanding of their customers. It is therefore essential to combine programs, surveys, gamification, and notifications to enrich the customer relationship and create more relevant experiences. <\/p>\n\n

On Android, the opt-in rate is higher at 81%, yet 19% of users still remain unreachable through Push. This is where retargeting becomes particularly valuable. <\/p>\n\n Retargeting complements push by reaching opt-out users within the apps and environments they use most, through personalized advertising. Push platforms can also be connected to retargeting solutions to retrieve users’ opt-in or opt-out status and build dedicated audience segments. <\/p>\n\n Contact the BackInApp experts about your retargeting campaigns<\/a><\/p>\n\n CONTACT A BACKINAPP EXPERT<\/a><\/p>\n\n Push is a highly direct channel, but sending too many notifications can damage the customer relationship. Timing is also critical: 75% of clicks occur within five minutes of a Push being sent, and 90% within 15 minutes. While Push notifications are primarily text-based, retargeting can create stronger emotional impact through richer and more engaging ad formats.<\/p>\n\n The two channels are therefore complementary, each serving a distinct role in the customer journey.<\/p>\n\n For more on push notifications and retargeting, read our article: bringing retargeting into your digital strategy<\/a><\/p>\n\n READ THE ARTICLE<\/a><\/p>\n\n Decathlon Coach is a sports coaching app. During the COVID-19 pandemic, interest in this type of app increased significantly, making 2020 a particularly intense period for the brand. <\/p>\n\n Contact the Ad4Screen experts about your mobile acquisition campaigns<\/a><\/p>\n\n CONTACT AN AD4SCREEN EXPERT<\/a><\/p>\n\n Downloads increased tremendously, making retention and long-term engagement the next priority.
