Calculator Formula

The retention rate is calculated by dividing the number of users at the end of the period by the number of users at the start of the period and then multiplying by 100 to get a percentage. The formula is:

\[ \text{Retention Rate (%)} = \left( \frac{\text{Total Users at End}}{\text{Total Users at Start}} \right) \times 100 \]

This formula helps you determine the percentage of users who continue to use your app over a specific period.

Usage Examples

Example 1

Situation: Your app had 1,000 users at the start of the month, and 700 users at the end of the month.

  • Total Users at Start: 1,000
  • Total Users at End: 700

Calculation:

\[ \text{Retention Rate (%)} = \left( \frac{700}{1000} \right) \times 100 = 70\% \]

Explanation: This means that 70% of your users continued to use your app by the end of the month. Imagine you invited 1,000 people to a party, and 700 stayed till the end—that’s pretty good!

Example 2

Situation: Your app had 2,000 users at the start of the week, and 1,200 users at the end of the week.

  • Total Users at Start: 2,000
  • Total Users at End: 1,200

Calculation:

\[ \text{Retention Rate (%)} = \left( \frac{1200}{2000} \right) \times 100 = 60\% \]

Explanation: In this case, 60% of your users continued to use your app by the end of the week. It’s like having 2,000 guests at a week-long event, and 1,200 stayed until the end.
