Hi All!,

Hope everybody is keeping well. I’m anxious to get my monthly user stats update. As was confirmed in an earlier post it’s on a 30 day rolling timeframe. I have two questions:

Does the 30 days start when you actually publish the app or when you start designing it?  
If it starts when you publish the app how can you find out the date that you published!

Many thanks,  
a

I’m not entirely sure, but I think it’s only when you actually publish it.

I don’t think we have a stat for this.

It should be the past 30 days from today, so it should be updating daily. It should be updating at least once a day, so the publish date really shouldn’t be playing a role here unless you are still within your first month of use. It’s just the number of unique user/devices in the 30 days prior to today.

This is only my personal understanding of it. I haven’t ever really paid attention to the counts so I could be wrong here, but I’ve always understood it that way.

Thanks @Jeff_Hager. I think I’m just coming of the back of my 30 days today so hopefully I’ll see a change tomorrow at some stage.
