What is Aggregated Event Management?

Before we dive into the improvements, let's first understand what aggregated event management is. Aggregated event management is a feature introduced by Apple in iOS 14.5 that allows advertisers to measure and optimise the performance of their iOS app ads. The feature aggregates user data to protect user privacy while still allowing advertisers to measure the effectiveness of their ads.

Aggregated event management enables advertisers to monitor specific events in their iOS app. Examples include the number of times a user completes a purchase or adds something to their cart. This data is then aggregated and made anonymous by Apple to protect user privacy. Advertisers can use this data to improve their ad campaigns. This will help them to target users who are more likely to take certain actions while using the app.

Improvements to Aggregated Event Management

Apple has introduced important advancements to aggregated event management on April 26, 2023. This will make it simpler for businesses to advertise on iOS.

These improvements include expanded support for additional event types. The changes will include:

  • In-app registrations
  • Trial starts, and
  • Subscription upgrades.


Businesses will be able to track and optimise their ad campaigns based on a wider range of user actions.

Improved reporting capabilities

The update has also given way to improved reporting capabilities, allowing businesses to see more detailed information about how their ads are performing. This information includes:

  • The number of times an ad was shown;
  • The number of clicks it received; and
  • The number of times users completed specific actions within their app.


With this information, businesses will be able to make more informed decisions about how to optimise their ad campaigns.

Enhanced privacy protections

As always, user privacy is a top priority for Apple. With this update, data will be anonymised and aggregated, which will prevent user information from being exposed. Businesses however, will have access to anonymised information to be able to measure and improve their ad campaigns with more accuracy.


How Will These Improvements Benefit Businesses?

Businesses will benefit greatly from the new changes. Here are a few of the key benefits:

Increased targeting capabilities

The expanded support for additional event types will allow businesses to target users who are more likely to take specific actions within their app. Businesses can optimise their ad campaigns to reach users more likely to convert. This leads to higher conversion rates and a better return on investment (ROI).

More detailed reporting

Improved reporting capabilities will allow businesses to see more detailed information about how their ads are performing. This information can help us make better decisions when optimising ad campaigns. This should ultimately increase the performance of ad campaigns and their return on investment.

Enhanced privacy protections

Businesses can trust that Apple has taken steps for user data to be kept anonymous and grouped together in a way that maintains user privacy. At the same time, businesses can measure and improve their advertising campaigns. This helps to build trust with users, which can lead to increased engagement and conversions.

The upcoming improvements to aggregated event management for iOS app ads will provide significant benefits to businesses advertising on iOS. Businesses will benefit from increased targeting capabilities, more detailed reporting, and greater trust with their users. This is made possible by expanded support for additional event types, improved reporting capabilities, and enhanced privacy protections. These improvements will likely result in higher conversion rates and a better return on investment for businesses advertising on iOS.

It is essential to recognise that these changes are thrilling. However, they also require us to use the data gathered ethically and according to Apple's rules. Advertisers should prioritise user privacy and use the data collected to provide a better experience for their users. By doing so, businesses can build long-term relationships with their customers and achieve sustainable growth.
