What install-to-purchase conversion actually measures
The share of installs that go on to make a first purchase.
Where the measurement goes wrong
Almost every published figure here omits the window. A 1.4% rate over 90 days and a 1.4% rate over 7 days describe very different products, and sources rarely say which they measured.
Your number is below this. Now what?
A benchmark tells you whether to worry, not what to do. Retention is downstream of activation: if users are not reaching the thing the product is for, no amount of re-engagement fixes the curve. That is the first thing worth checking, and it is usually the least instrumented part of the funnel.
