![Google Ads App Connect: In-App Conversions & Bidding [Tutorial]](/yt-thumb/-5hyMf5H4YY/maxresdefault.jpg)
Stop just driving downloads and start tracking real ROI with Google Ads App Connect. In this step-by-step tutorial, we'll show you exactly how to set up in-app conversion tracking and configure Smart Bidding to maximize your app's performance.
Tracking app installs is a great start, but understanding what users do after they download is crucial for a successful Google Ads campaign. By implementing Google Ads App Connect, you can seamlessly link your app SDK—like Firebase or other third-party app analytics providers—to import high-value in-app actions directly into your ad account.
This video breaks down the entire conversion tracking setup process within the App Connect hub. You will learn how to successfully link an app SDK, manage your analytics provider, and import your most important in-app conversion actions, such as purchases, registrations, or add-to-cart events.
Once imported, we will also show you how to configure these specific actions for Action Optimization, switching them from secondary to primary. This indicates that your chosen in-app conversions can be used directly for bidding. Finally, we walk you through enabling Smart Bidding strategies on your campaigns. By updating your campaign's bid strategy, your ads will automatically optimize for these high-value in-app actions, helping you get the best possible return on investment (ROI) from your mobile app advertising efforts.
