Ever wondered how your app is performing after launch? Where do users come from? How many actually download it?

The Sales and Trends section in App Store Connect gives you a clear picture of your app's financial and download performance.

• Units: Total downloads and re-downloads.
• Sales: Revenue generated from paid apps or in-app purchases.
