It would be useful to track the source from where the user installed the app. It's especially important for startups to know which of their campaigns are performing better and which are not working.

This would help a lot. Is this an ongoing project?

Hello, current status?

Antonio Curiel

anyone could handle this? with expo

I believe it's possible to detect uninstalls too.

Brent Vatne

we are adding the branch sdk for this, but we should also expose the android API without branch

Hugo Grochau

Brent Vatne: Hey Brent, any updates on this?

Also, how would we use the branch sdk for tracking the source for non-branch links?

Guto Sanches

Brent Vatne: sorry to ask this again but it's been some months now, is there any updates on this?

Ah, thanks. Good idea. What would you normally use for this if you weren't using Exponent? Is there a React Native native module that is commonly used?
