how to check app install and uninstall in google play console

You can check app installs and uninstalls in Google Play Console from your app’s statistics.

1. Open Google Play Console

Go to:
https://play.google.com/console/

Select your app.

2. Check installs and uninstalls

Go to:

Your App → Statistics

Then configure:

• Metric: Users or User acquisition
• Time period: Last 7 days / 30 days / 90 days / Custom
• Dimension: Date

Depending on the Play Console UI/version, useful metrics include:

• New users – users who installed your app
• Active users – users who currently have your app installed and are active
• Uninstalls – users who removed your app
• Install events – installation events
• Update events – app updates

3. For a simple install vs uninstall view

In Statistics, look for metrics related to:

Metric	Meaning
New users	New users who installed the app
Active users	Users currently using the app
Uninstalls	Users who uninstalled
Acquisition	How users discovered/installed your app

You can also change the date range to see daily, weekly, or monthly trends.

4. Important: Play Console numbers can differ

Don’t assume:

Total installs − total uninstalls = current installed users

Google Play reports different user/event metrics, and the definitions and reporting periods matter.
