With this type of Custom Audience, you can target your ads to people who have previously used your app, but whom you want to engage with again. You have the option to create audiences by app id/name from attributed events as well as non-attributed events once set up. Learn more about enabling non-attributed events for your app here.


Prerequisite of Using This Feature

Event Set up: Configure app events and access to post back event data to TikTok on your third-party tracking platform.


Please ensure that you turn on the in-app events option in your third-party tracking platform for the App Activity audience to work properly. Once turned on, the Install event will be posted back by default unless you configure it for other events.
