One of these answers which campaign drove the install. The other answers whether the install was worth buying. They are not the same question.
Revenue Sensor
Marketing P&L
AppsFlyer
Mobile measurement partner
Revenue Sensor reads your ad accounts and your store reports directly, so there is no SDK to ship and no engineering work to schedule. It puts spend next to revenue taken from the stores' own reports rather than from events your app sends, and gives you margin per app and per country. If your real problem is that nobody can say what last month actually earned, this is the shorter path to an answer.
AppsFlyer is measurement infrastructure. It needs an SDK in your app, and in exchange it attributes installs and in-app events across networks, runs SKAdNetwork and Privacy Sandbox measurement, and filters ad fraud. Revenue Sensor does none of that and does not claim to. If you buy user acquisition at scale, you need an MMP, and AppsFlyer is a good one.
Where AppsFlyer is stronger, the section below says so.

| Pulls in your ad spend | Yes, 5 ad networks | Yes, cost aggregation via ROI360 |
| Revenue from the store's own reports, not your app's events | Yes | No, revenue events from your SDK |
| Subtracts the store's cut | No, buyer tax handled; commission not yet | No |
| Spend and revenue in one table, with profit | Yes | Partly, ROI dashboards, not a P&L |
| Profit per app and per country | Yes, campaign level on Meta | Partly, by campaign and app |
| Price published on the website | Yes, flat monthly | Partly, $0.07/conversion published; ROI360 is not |
| Free plan | Yes | Yes, Zero plan, 12,000 lifetime conversions |

Revenue Sensor
Flat monthly plans — a free tier, then Starter and Pro. Two sources on Free, five on Starter, unlimited on Pro, published on our pricing page.
Start freeAppsFlyer
A free Zero plan capped at 12,000 lifetime installs, then the Growth plan at a published per-conversion rate (about $0.07 at the time of writing). Enterprise rates are negotiated.
Check both pricing pages before you decide — the lines above describe the published shape of each model, not a quote for your volume.
Not if you need attribution. Revenue Sensor never claims to attribute an install to a campaign — it has no SDK and no device graph. What it replaces is the spreadsheet you build after AppsFlyer, where you paste spend and revenue together to work out margin.
No. You authorize read access to your ad accounts and store reporting, and data starts flowing. There is nothing to ship in an app update.
AppsFlyer reports revenue events your app sends it. Revenue Sensor reads the stores' own financial reports instead, so the number matches the store's record rather than your app's. Buyer tax is captured; the store's commission is not deducted yet.
It depends entirely on your conversion volume. AppsFlyer charges per conversion, so the bill scales with growth; our plans are flat. Below the free caps both are free. Run the arithmetic on your own numbers rather than trusting a general answer.
Connect one ad account and one revenue source on the free plan and read your real margin for last month.
