User retention metrics are crucial for app and game creators, offering valuable insights into the performance and engagement levels of their products. These metrics specifically focus on how frequently users interact with an app over a defined period, distinguishing them from acquisition metrics that primarily deal with new user attraction.

The reason retention metrics draw so much interest is that working with people who are already familiar with your product is easier and cheaper. If they stay with you, it means that they have at least a little bit of interest in your product. They have passed the acquisition stage and are now your target audience, so you don’t need to invest large sums of money in finding them. All you need to do is retain and monetize them. All of this can be done through analyzing specific metrics, which are available in analytics platforms such as Devtodev.
