Connect Google Play Store to Power BI

Set up Google Play Store reporting access in Catchr and select the app. In Catchr’s Power BI query builder, select installs by date with useful device, country or version breakdowns and preview a short extraction. Import the generated URL through Get data > Web in Power BI Desktop. Check the returned rows before building measures, keeping app, reporting period and the definition of the install measure clear in the model.

Catchr's catalog includes user and device installs, uninstalls, crashes, ANRs, ratings and subscription indicators. Build separate sections for acquisition, quality and monetization. A single download total cannot explain whether users keep the app or whether a release introduces reliability problems.

They count different units: users and devices. A user can have more than one device, so the counts need not match. Catchr exposes these measures separately. Use one definition consistently across comparisons instead of mixing user-based totals with device-based rates.

No. A current-install measure describes an installed base, while daily installs describe activity during a day. Adding daily snapshots of the current base repeatedly counts the same installations. Use daily activity for acquisition trends and the relevant snapshot for the size of the installed base.

Google documents differences in how acquisition and statistics reports assign installs to dates and populations. For example, an acquisition view can connect a later install with an earlier store-listing visit. Match the report definition before comparing the same visible date range.

Catchr exposes daily crash and ANR counts together with app-version and device information. Use these fields to look for concentrations around a release or device group. Compare the counts with the size of the affected population; a popular version can have more crashes simply because more people use it.

Yes. Add App Store Connect to create an Android and iOS overview. Keep platform labels and align the meaning of each metric. Google Play installs and Apple's app units use different definitions, so present them as separate platform measures unless you have explicitly standardized the comparison.
