The average daily time spent using apps was eighteen percent higher for European users than Americans. Other differences were even more staggering: Europeans spent 130% more time in gaming apps than Americans and an incredible 359% more time in sports apps!

With such dramatic opportunities in the European market, in 2013 Localytics established a London office to better serve its current clients and continues to expand its European customer base. Localytics' European Mobile Success Tour, featuring speakers from Localytics, Trinity Mirror and Avios, will visit London and then travel to Barcelona and Berlin.

As a leading closed-loop analytics and marketing platform for mobile and web apps, Localytics helps companies gain deep, actionable insights into app-users’ behavior. These insights can be leveraged to acquire users more efficiently; drive targeted interactions through push and in-app messaging; and personalize the in-app experience.

"Localytics insight helped us decrease ad spend by seven times and move from being a top-ten app in our category to a top-three app." said Saalim Chowdhury, Head of Digital Innovation and Product Strategy at Trinity Mirror

The precision of Localytics' insights helps marketers as they move from seeking just downloads to better engaging with their customers inside apps – offering insights into how and when people are using their mobiles or tablets. For example, in Europe, app use peaks at 6 p.m. compared to a US peak at 8 p.m.

The European Mobile Success Tour comes on the heels of a successful $16m Series C financing round for Localytics. "With this injection of capital, we will continue to enhance the platform, expand our business internationally, and deliver even more value to our customers," said Localytics CEO Raj Aggarwal. He added, "Growing our business in Europe is a key piece of our 2014 plan."
