Problem:
I’m an app developer and my boss asked me how many times one of our iPhone apps was downloaded
What I tried so far:
Apple statistics:
There seem to be only daily or weekly data. Furthermore, there seem to be no way to access download statistics from previous years.
Services like http://www.appannie.com:
This might work, but I don’t really want to give them the email and password of our developer account.
Scraping the data automatically (See: automatically-download-sales-reports-from-itunes-connect):
I don’t really want to spend time to set up and maintain such a system unless there is really no other solution.
My Question:
Is there a better way? How do other developer find out how many times their app was downloaded?
i use appAnnie, but i didn’t gave them my “email and password of my developer account”.
in ItunnesConnect apple site you can create a new account with JUST the privilege to see the reports of a single app, and nothing more
P.S.
This may be very useful in case you want to give access to a client or a developer partner to a single app statistics, as you can create a new appAnnie user with access to just an app.
