I have an app published on Apple's app store via iTunes Connect. I also have the same app published on Google's Play store.
Both platforms are on their 3rd version and I need to measure the number of installs of each version. Google have made this easy - in the developer console click 'Statistics' then 'App Version':
However, I'm struggling to find a similar report in iTunes Connect.
Is there a way to achieve this with iOS apps?
You can get similar (but not the same nice overview!) information for apps using iOS8+ via Apple's own App Analytics without integrating any 3rd party SDK.
Go to https://analytics.itunes.apple.com/ > Your App > Metrics
Then choose from the "Usage" metrics on the left either "Installations" or "Sessions" (1) and plot them by "App Versions" (2). Please note that usage metrics only included "opt-in" data. (I'd also adjust the time interval if needed)
You can get your opt-in rate by clicking on the little "?" in the top right next to "About App Analytics" in almost every view.

Due to a migration in the back I would like to temporary stop my app from being downloaded.
In the past I could manage that in Play Store Console. But now I can't find any switch for that.
How to disable the app temporary in Play Store ?
For anyone still looking for an answer, it is possible nowadays (an easier and better way than the other answer suggests).
First open up Google Play Console
On the left hand side click Setup > Advanced Settings
Then under App Availability click Unpublished
In Playstore developer console You can go to pricing and distribution section in the left hand side panel
You should find Availability section listing lot of countries where your app would be available for download from playstore
You can make all countries as unavailable or few selected countries
for keeping you app hidden from playstore and there by stopping downloads from playstore for sometime , you can always make your app available by selecting available in countries once done available , your app would be back in playstore within few minutes and will be ready for download.
I have a cross-platform app on the Android store and the iOS store.
Marketing would like stats on app uptake, downloads, count of devices it is on, etc.
Is there a way through API or another means where i can pull the stats off the android console and app store connect and display them in a report rather than me having to log into each site every time and add the numbers together.
Thanks,
I have published app on play store, I don't know why the app is showing Pre-Registration, I want to give direct download option to my users. Helping hands will be highly appreciated.
The instructions for pre-registration are here. But I'm not sure how this would have happened to you by accident.
To remove it and publish, see the section "Launch your app or game from pre-registration"
Sign in to your Play Console.
Select an app or game that you made available for pre-registration..
Click Store presence > Pricing & distribution.
In the “Countries” section, click Manage countries.
Next to the countries where you want to launch your app or game, select Available.
Select Submit update.
Important: To make your app available on Google Play in the countries you select, make sure to publish your app or game on the Production track. You can publish on the Production track by selecting your app, and then selecting Release Management > App Releases.
After it’s published to the Production track, your app or game will become available in any country set to “Available” on its Pricing & Distribution page.
I have a paid app and I would like to give some users free access.
I have no in-app purchases and the Features tab in App Store Connect says "Promo Codes can only be generated for approved versions".
How do I generate a promo code?
Provided you have a released version of your app it should be listed in the Features tab, the message you are seeing suggests your app is not yet approved and available for purchase. Just wait until it is. HTH
Edit: The link in your question did not work for me so I assumed the app was not approved. However I just found it by searching the App Store. It has only just been released, the Features tab is probably lagging a bit, as before just wait a while and it should appear.
Ok, so without much notification given, adding market place listings to your vendor profile is no longer possible. The 'create new listing' button is greyed out.
I need to make changes to an existing marketplace listing but that gives errors. We are forced into the new SDK.
So I went ahead and enabled the apps market SDK, filled out all details including images of all sizes, add a COB extension for the contextual gadget and saved the whole thing.
A minute later I return to make a modification and dang... error: "We are looking into this.".
#Google: HELP !
UPDATE : I can reliably reproduce the error as explained here.
Enable Google Apps Marketplace SDK in your project
click on the gear icon, you will be directed to the old API Console
Fill out all details
Add a COB extension (Contextual gadget)
Save everything
Close the API console
Go back to your cloud console -> Google Apps Marketplace SDK
Click on the gear icon again
ERROR
Tested with several google accounts on different computeres and multiple projects on the cloud console.
#jonathanberi could we have a status on this issue, please? We are experiencing the exact same issue and we are unable to publish our app (which is ready) because of this bug. We have tried both creating a new Google Apps console project from scratch as well as modifying a draft of a yet to be published page with the same result. Is any information that we could provide to help?
You must fill out parameter name and a paramter value or your cloud console will return errors and you will not be able to recover from this.
Ouch, that were 3 useless weeks....
