YouAppi earned nine rankings in the AppsFlyer Performance Index – 2026 Edition, with results across gaming categories and regions led by two top-four finishes. It is a result that reflects what precision re-engagement delivers when it is built for performance.

The AppsFlyer Performance Index has been the mobile industry’s benchmark for media source performance since 2015. Ranking in it means a source delivers in real marketing environments, measured against the most qualified players in the field. This year’s edition is built on 27.2 billion paid installs and 42.2 billion remarketing conversions, with 57 media sources qualifying.

Nine Rankings Across Gaming

YouAppi placed in nine rankings this year, all in gaming and on Android:

  • #4 — Gaming Overall, LATAM
  • #4 — Social Casino, North America
  • #5 — Social Casino, Global
  • #6 — Gaming Overall, North America
  • #6 — Puzzle & Lifestyle, North America
  • #6 — Gaming Overall, Western Europe
  • #6 — Puzzle & Lifestyle, Western Europe
  • #7 — Puzzle & Lifestyle, Global
  • #8 — Gaming Overall, Global

The two #4 placements lead the set, and they sit exactly where re-engagement is hardest to win. The results span four regions and reach from regional categories to a global field of qualified sources, a sign of consistent performance across the markets that matter most in mobile gaming.

A Ranking That Now Follows the Budget

What makes this year’s result stand out is how the Index measures performance. The 2026 edition replaced retention with the quarter-over-quarter change in advertiser ad spend as its quality signal. A ranking now reflects whether advertisers chose to increase what they invest in a source, a decision made with real budget.

That makes a strong placement a vote of confidence rather than a measure of reach. YouAppi ranking where it does means advertisers in these markets are not only working with us, they are putting more behind the partnership.

Built for High-Value Re-Engagement

YouAppi’s results reflect a focus that does not change: turning dormant users into high-value players through precise, performance-driven remarketing. Real-time audience modeling, dynamic creative, and optimization built for return are what put these rankings where they are.
