SPONSORED INSIGHT & RESOURCE
It was only a matter of time before AI could be leveraged for store experiments!
Phitureβs AI Labs built PressPlay to fully automate A/B tests on the Google Play Store (iOS coming soon!) for the following (so far): icon, screenshot order, feature graphic, and short description. Plus, it allows for localization at scale.
The results the Wildlife Studios team got by using PressPlay are impressive, and they combined it with qualitative feedback for maximum impact π
Phiture has a few places left in Q2 to onboard selected early adopters with PressPlayβ¦Contact them here today so you donβt miss out (requires 100k+ monthly Android installs):
How does it work?
At the heart of PressPlay is an Automated Experiment Assistant built for each title, trained on the appβs information, the competitive landscape, and customer reviews, as well as all historical wins and losses so it better understands what works and what doesnβt.
Running 500+ concurrent experimentsβ¦Pretty powerful stuff!

Gems from Marcus Burke (UA & Growth Consultant) in Scaling Your Subscription App with Meta Ads on the Sub Club podcast
I like to think that when I started sharing the growth gems I mine in 2020, I contributed to elevating the quality of LinkedIn content in mobile growth.
Well, Marcus took things to the next level there and is the record owner of mentions in the #LinkedInGems I share every Sunday.
He hasnβt appeared on a lot of podcasts, though.
My first descent to mine some of his content was last summer (cf. Growth Gems #97); this time, he shared several more valuable insights.
