Sensor Tower's Consumer Intelligence module provides Power User data that tracks days used per month, offering a unique measure of app stickiness beyond time spent or sessions.
This metric serves as a leading indicator for engagement trends.
Examples include crypto exchange apps like Coinbase, whose average days used fell 30% year-over-year while sessions only dropped 6%, indicating decreased daily reliance.
For SVOD services, Netflix leads with 11% of users opening the app 15+ days monthly versus competitors.
Duolingo's stickiness increased from 16% in Feb'21 to 23% in Feb'23 for 20+ days use, driving revenue growth.
Social media apps show Instagram as stickiest with 44% daily users, while dating app Hinge has 10% daily users.
Power User data helps assess feature effectiveness, loyalty, and monetization potential.
