What the SDK needs from you

The setup steps that apply to any attribution SDK in a iOS app. Each vendor datasheet lists that vendor's own requirements.

  • Install
    Swift Package Manager or CocoaPods. Some vendors now publish newer versions through SPM first; Kochava distributes only through SPM since v8.
  • Minimum iOS
    Ranges from iOS 12 to iOS 15.5 across the vendors here. Your deployment target must be at or above the SDK's.
  • ATT prompt
    Add NSUserTrackingUsageDescription and request authorisation with ATTrackingManager. Without consent the IDFA is all zeros, and attribution falls back to other signals and SKAN.
  • SKAN and AdAttributionKit
    Add NSAdvertisingAttributionReportEndpoint to Info.plist if your MMP wants copies of postbacks, and check whether the SDK updates conversion values for you.
  • Deep links
    Enable the Associated Domains capability with applinks:<your link domain>, host the apple-app-site-association file (most MMPs host it on their link domain) and forward continueUserActivity and URL opens to the SDK.
  • Privacy manifest
    Check the SDK ships a PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy file and include its data types in your App Store privacy answers.

Questions

Which MMPs have an official iOS (native) SDK?

9 of the 9 MMPs tracked here publish an official iOS (native) SDK: Adjust, Airbridge, AppMetrica, AppsFlyer, Branch, Kochava, Linkrunner, Singular and Tenjin.

How do I install an MMP SDK in a iOS app?

Add the Swift package in Xcode or the pod to your Podfile, then initialise the SDK early in the app's launch.

Do I need ATT consent to use an MMP SDK on iOS?

No. The SDK runs and can attribute without it, using SKAN, AdAttributionKit and any deterministic signal such as a deep link click. Consent only unlocks the IDFA for user-level matching.

Should I use CocoaPods or Swift Package Manager?

Either works where the vendor publishes both. Check which channel carries the newest release: Kochava, for example, distributes its iOS SDK only through Swift Package Manager since v8, and Airbridge's newest versions are on its SPM repository ahead of CocoaPods trunk.

What is an MMP SDK?

An MMP SDK is the library a mobile measurement partner asks you to add to your app. It records the first open, in-app events and deep link opens, and sends them to the MMP so installs can be matched to the ad or link that drove them.

Is every MMP SDK open source?

No. Many wrappers and SDKs are MIT licensed, but some native SDKs are proprietary: AppsFlyer's native iOS and Android SDKs, Kochava's SDKs and AppMetrica's Flutter plugin are published under proprietary terms. The licence column in each table shows what the registry or repository states.
